The Toiyabe Chamber Music Society is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, presenting chamber music performances by small ensembles in inviting venues.

Desiring to fill the needs of audiences in a larger geographic range, TCMS changed its name in 2022 from the Tahoe Chamber Music Society to the Toiyabe Chamber Music Society and expanded its programming to the greater Reno-Sparks area, Carson City and outlying communities in Nevada and California.

TCMS presents concerts free of admission charge to further its goal of creating an accessible experience for diverse audiences of all ages to share and perpetuate the joy of live chamber music.

News

Where others see the open, quiet stretches of U.S. Highway 50 — popularly known as the “Loneliest Road in America” — we at the Toiyabe Chamber Music Society (TCMS) see pure artistic opportunity and the building blocks of community. Our tagline has always been “Good music in good spaces,” and that philosophy lies at the heart of our latest initiative: The Loneliest Road Chamber Music Project.

We want to strip away the traditional elitism of formal concert halls and bring world-class chamber music directly into intimate, comfortable spaces across Nevada.

Future stops for the project over the next two years will push further east into central and eastern Nevada, with planned concerts in Eureka, Ely, and potentially Baker near the Utah border.

As part of this ongoing project, have planned performances by Berkelium String Quartet, the Toiyabe Trio, violinist Daniel Darmesin Flanagan, and the Reno Modern Brass.
