Entering its 11th season, Apollo Chamber Players has reached audiences in its hometown of Houston (TX) and around the world with its distinctive, globally-focused programming and multicultural new music commissions. Apollo holds the distinction of being the first American chamber ensemble to record and perform in Cuba in January 2017. In 2013 and 2017, the Apollo performed for sold-out audiences at Carnegie Hall, and it is featured frequently on American Public Media’s Performance Today. Apollo Chamber Players recently conducted a residency, reaching over 200 students at the KIPP Sharpstown Academy with music from diverse composers. This residency was funded by CMA through its Residency Partnership Program.
