Cedille Chicago, NFP, a nonprofit organization, relies on donations to record and promote our artists and their recordings.

Thank you for joining us to celebrate Chicago’s finest classical musicians!

A big challenge [for emerging artists] right now is getting our voices out there. We need a community to support us, to believe in us, and to give us the resources, along with the guidance. As an emerging artist, I’m trying to figure it all out, and . . . Cedille Records is really helping.”

Oliver Talukder, oboe
