Description
The VCM Summer Strings Intensive (SSI) brings together young violinists, violists, and cellists in an exciting, immersive one, two, or three week program. The weeks are tailored for all levels of student string players, from the absolute beginner and the novice in the Junior Strings Intensive to intermediate and advanced students in the Senior Strings Intensive. The programs will have an emphasis on both the development of technique, and the cultivation of musicianship and artistry. Through VCM SSI, students can expect to significantly improve their overall level of playing!
This unique end of summer program caters to the serious string student who may have spent the summer tree planting, or serving coffee, or driving Pedi-cabs, and now need a reboot for the academic year. This program will also appeal to the serious string student who spent the summer playing in orchestral or chamber music festivals, but was not practicing their solo repertoire or technique.
reBoot Camp features:
- Technique classes that cover all scales and arpeggios, 2, 3 and 4 octaves, and all double stop scales
- Etude classes
- Excerpt classes
- Lessons on repertoire
- A mock audition for the GVYO or your university orchestra
Please note: if the program appears full (or if the counter reads 0 spots available) we will try to accommodate students on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us at 250-386-5311.
