The Association to Cultivate Chamber Music and Support Young Musicians was founded on 12 Dec 1959 as
independent subsidiary of the Polytechnische Gesellschaft together with the Frankfurter Sparkasse. With
compositions seldom heard and exceptional musicians, the Association, in addition to presenting standard
literature, has successfully pursued its goals in the years of its existence. Goals are above all to promote
young musicians in this concert series. This podium is favoured by students, as they can present themselves
alongside already established musicians. With its concerts the Association also wishes to make classical music
accessible to the public at large, free of charge or at low admission prices. This is made possible by donations
from the 1822 Foundation, the Foundation Frankfurter Sparkasse and the Polytechnische Gesellschaft e.V.
Artistic direction of the series is in the hands of professors Resch and Buchberger. The Association has not
only gained a firm place in Frankfurt's concert scenario. Since 1970, chamber concerts are also held in
surrounding communities: four concerts each in Hanau, Schwalbach and Bad Vilbel and one concert in
Friedrichsdorf.
