**General ticket sales for the Chamber Music Society'**s concerts begin on Culture Night, August 23, but until then, you can purchase The Chamber Music Society Pass at Harpa's box office and on Harpa's website. The passes will be ready for pick-up at Harpa's box office from August 23, when the Chamber Music Society will hold a short concert as part of Harpa's Culture Night programme.

This concert will feature the first work ever written for clarinet, viola and piano, Mozart's Kegelstatt Trio, along with Schumann's Adventures for the same instrument combination. Grigory Frid's Viola Sonata, written in 1971, will also be premiered in Iceland. Ásdís Valdimarsdóttir and Elisaveta Blumina regularly perform chamber music together in European concert halls, but Elisaveta is now performing in Iceland for the first time. Grímur Helgason, from the Iceland Symphony Orchestra, will also be performing for the Chamber Music Society for the first time.
