From Hilary Tann's meditation on ancient Celtic texts to Sir Peter Maxwell Davies' extraordinary piano trio, Chameleon Arts Ensemble's by the north-wind sent is inspired by the people, music and natural beauty of the tiny Fair Isle in the remote Shetlands, 100-plus miles north of mainland Scotland. Chameleon's own "Idea of North" is a journey through musical landscapes of solitude, spirit, nature and legend. The program also includes works by composers from Northern climes including Jean Sibelius, Carl Nielsen and Edvard Grieg.

Chameleon Arts Ensemble are an exciting chamber group that perform classic and contemporary pieces. Each performance is build around a theme, this show being a program featuring composers from northern climates, Each piece was varied with it's instrumentation. The artistry was exceptional and the listening experience rewarding. Chameleon are adventurous and committed and Boston is fortunate to have a group like this in the community
