i have not been to a chamber music party, but when i was touring the usa and
canada, we had a big brunch (about 50-60 of us) and then went out onto the
street (it was a coul de sac) and had a massive jam session for a few hours.
It was awesome fun, and we played jazz tunes and took turns in solos and
trading fourths etc. It was an awesome way to get to know people.

Though I've never done this, I think that THIS kind of party is one I'd
DEFINITELY attend! This sounds like a LOT of fun, and, as you said, lots of
opportunity to network and meet new contacts. Glad you got to do this!
