"Phoenix Chamber grew out of my hope to bring world-class chamber musicians to Phoenixville in a setting that feels intimate, welcoming, and connected to the community," said Nhi Huynh, the founder and artistic director of the chamber.

A celebrated performer herself, Huynh has a PhD in musical arts and teaches piano at Lafayette College and Swarthmore College.
