    I've been really enjoying their Dvorak Op 77 quintet. The name "Chamber Music Society" makes me think of Mrs Lopsided listening to Boccherini in The Ladykillers but there's nothing amateur about these performances!

    There's some other recordings on spotify which I will try soon -- Mozart, a bit of Beethoven, some composers I don't know at all really, like Wuorinen and Walton.

    I now see that the names on their (delightful) disc of Mozart divertimenti CD include Walter Trampler and Fred Sherry -- so not amateurs!

    Actually, in _The Ladykillers_ the putative musicians never played their instruments. They played a phonograph recording of the Boccherini
    (which makes this on-topic in RMCR!) for the benefit of the landlady
    downstairs while they conferred to plan their ill-fated crime.

    If you go to their website, https://www.chambermusicsociety.org/watch-and-listen/
    there is a large archive of videos going back a decade. If you want
    to explore beyond the specific performances and playlists found on the
    home page, click the small box "show all media" near the top of the page.
    There is also a search function. I suspect the sound is P3 quality; I
    have no idea how that compares to spotify.
