Selected
chamber ensembles
I suspect "formations" is a literal translation from some romance language. "Ensemble" is much more likely what a musician would say.

: I'm a professional musician (30 years in chamber music, orchestra and opera) and this works. "Formations" does not work.

Also, I paste this link that uses both terms (ensemble and formations) in the same text:

San Francisco Piano Quartet
San Francisco Piano Quartet wants to redefine the traditional chamber ensemble.
The four members combine their extensive chamber and solo experience to present as many different chamber music formations as their four instruments will allow. Though the primary group is a piano quartet, the members will also present duos, trios, and solo works. San Francisco Piano Quartet will take the classics of the chamber music repertoire and put a very different spin on the concert goer’s experience.

| Thank you!! |
| Luis, I agree with formations as a valid option - the client preferred range. Thanks a million - I was stuck, since chamber music is generally called música de cámara - the camelística had me baffled. |

: neither of the first two links was written by a native EN speaker; they are full of errors. The third link does not open. // My point is that "formation" here sounds like a translation written by a Romance speaker rather than a native EN sp.

I put the third link again, plus other ones. By the way, "ensemble" also comes from a romance language. In Spanish we also use "ensamble" for "ensemble". That's why I chose "formation" for "formación"
