ABOUT CARAMOOR Our mission is to enrich the lives of audiences through innovative and diverse musical performances of the highest quality; mentor young professional musicians; and engage children through interactive, educational experiences that deepen their relationship to and their understanding of music. These three prongs — music performance, musician mentoring, and music education — inform everything we do.
Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts is a nonprofit cultural arts center located on a unique 81-acre campus filled with beautiful gardens, historic buildings, and an art collection in Katonah, NY, in northern Westchester. Founded in 1946, Caramoor presents 50–60 live music performances throughout the year, including a seven-week Summer Season with more than 30 outdoor concerts on multiple stages, and a series of concerts in the historic Rosen House in the fall and spring. Classical music — from chamber and orchestral to opera — forms the core of Caramoor’s programming, but over the years, the programming has grown to include jazz, American Roots, global music, American Songbook, family programs, and more.
Caramoor also has a permanent and rotating collection of sound art installed throughout the property and trains the next generation of classical musicians through three mentoring residency programs for young professional musicians. Through its public programs and community events, Caramoor annually serves approximately 40,000 people.
Formerly the home of art and music lovers Walter and Lucie Rosen, the extensive grounds include gardens and outdoor music venues, as well as the historic Rosen House, a Mediterranean-style villa completed in 1939 and filled with European and Asian artworks. In 1946, the Rosens opened their home to the public to enjoy concerts and be inspired by the grounds, and the historic Rosen House is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
