Join us for an exciting week of chamber music for violinists, violists, and cellists!
Students will be assigned a chamber music group - a small ensemble where everyone has their own part - with daily coachings and time to practice with their group. This is a wonderful way to deepen your understanding of musicianship and form new friendships through music-making! Students will also benefit from a daily masterclass (mini-lessons in the context of a small group) and fun electives!
