In a divided world, District5 invites audiences to rediscover what brings us together. More than a concert, this program offers a chance to pause, breathe, and reconnect through music, exploring unity and resilience through a series of beautiful and uplifting works. Now in its twelfth season, District5 is one of the most innovative chamber ensembles in the greater Washington, DC area, known for performances that combine passion, humor, virtuosity, and music you won’t hear anywhere else.
The ensemble has appeared at venues including The REACH at the Kennedy Center, Dumbarton Oaks, Wolf Trap, the Library of Congress, and the U.S. Department of State. Their projects include The Queentet Project, the album of Chopin Preludes, Forgotten Dances, the Pandemic Suite, and numerous commissions and transcriptions that spotlight overlooked music and composers. District5 also has a strong commitment to education, with programs created for leading youth ensembles and festivals, and service as Ensemble-in-Residence and summer faculty for major youth music academies.
