Music in the Galleries: Ivy Street Ensemble

The nationally recognized Ivy Street Ensemble delights audiences across the country with a variety of music ranging from classical standards to commissioned new compositions by cutting edge composers. The ensemble is a core group of three Denver-area musicians (Cathy Peterson, flute;  Erik Peterson, violin; and Philip Stevens, viola), and they collaborate with various instruments such as double bass, cello, oboe and harp to enjoy a wide range of repertoire.

Ivy Street Ensemble has performed throughout Colorado at a variety of concert venues ranging from large venues such as Boettcher Concert Hall and the Ellie Caulkins Recital Hall to the nursing homes, hospitals, schools, and homeless shelters; sharing music with a diverse population. In addition to their live concert performances, they can be heard in Oregon as part of the Chintimini Chamber Music Festival and classical music lovers in Denver can hear them frequently broadcast on Colorado Public Radio.
