Our Mission

The Saratoga Chamber Players, a 501 (c)3 organization, presents concerts in Saratoga and Warren Counties of New York. After 30 years at the artistic helm of the organization, violinist Jill Levy is succeeded by cellist Ashley Bathgate as the new Executive and Artistic Director of the Saratoga Chamber Players, as of the 2025-26 season.

Repertoire includes traditional and contemporary pieces offered by professional musicians from the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia. The mission of the organization is to present, cultivate, promote and develop an appreciation for and understanding of music, the musical arts generally and chamber music in particular. In order to highlight the interrelationship of the arts and to enrich the community, SCP collaborates with other arts and cultural organizations in the area, including the Saratoga Springs public schools.
