The Chamber Music Program is designed for students with at least two years of private lesson study on their instrument or equivalent proficiency, including the ability to read music fluently. Placement auditions are held following registration to ensure well-balanced ensembles where every musician can contribute meaningfully.
Through participation in chamber ensembles, students not only refine their instrumental skills but also cultivate essential musicianship qualities such as nonverbal communication and creative collaboration. They’ll work with our diverse and talented faculty, gaining fresh perspectives that complement their primary instrumental studies.
Whether joining as an individual or part of a pre-formed group, students will find a supportive environment that fosters musical growth, builds lasting friendships, and develops a profound appreciation for collective musical expression. Join us in this exciting musical journey and discover the joy of creating harmony together in chamber music!
Summer enrollment is flexible, and schedules are based on students’ and teachers’ availability.
