The Essex Chamber Music Players (ECMP) create and present new classical music along with great musical treasures of the past.

ECMP is a cultural gem in the Merrimack Valley and Essex County in Massachusetts.

Under Artistic Director Michael G. Finegold, ECMP has been presenting popular concerts at Northern Essex Community College and throughout the area since its founding in 1999.

ECMP’s acclaimed project, “Preserving Local Cultural History through Music,” sets the work of famous local authors and poets, as well as historical settings, to original music created by area composers.

ECMP also offers an educational program that uses music to bring local cultural history alive for area middle school students.
