Chromos began as an idea; that the process of music-making together informs both the quality and meaning of our art. We are a process-based ensemble, passionately dedicated to the creation of musical-meanings for the benefit of our audiences and community at-large.
Centered around color, inflection, and expressive nuance, we strive to convey the boundary-less, universally human concepts both implicit and explicit in the Western-Classical musical medium. Outward-focused in our intentions, we intend to emotionally enrich our community through performances of both standard and marginalized repertoire that fulfills our desire to create a sensory, visceral, and vital process-based musical culture.
