Classical Access

Since 1994, the Classical Access program has brought Diller-Quaile chamber musicians to schools, day care centers, libraries, social service agencies, and senior centers throughout New York City. Currently, Diller-Quaile partners with Dawning Village Day Care Center, P.S. 84 - The Lillian Weber School, P.S. 102 – Jacques Cartier School, P.S. 198M - Isador E. Ida Straus School, and Goddard Riverside Community Center. Designed as an introduction to chamber music, Diller-Quaile works closely with each partnering organization to develop a program that is responsive to the needs and interests of each partnering institution.

Classical Access is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council. Classical Access is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature. In addition, Diller-Quaile’s Community Programs are made possible with support from The Achelis and Bodman Foundation, The Morris and Alma Schapiro Fund, and generous donors to The Diller-Quaile Annual Fund.
