Summer Academy - Strings - Senior: Week 1
Group Classes & EnsemblesSummer 2020|#D.SA.ST.2.U
Description
The VCM Summer Academy Strings Program brings together young violinsts, violists, and cellists wanting to immerse themselves in exciting string study tailored specifically for the needs of advanced students and junior players, with emphasis on the development of technique and musicianship. Through this intensive program, students can expect to significantly improve their overall level of playing in just a couple of weeks!
Senior Strings participants will take part daily in technique classes, masterclasses, string orchestra, and chamber music. They will also receive a minimum of three private lessons per week, and two coaching sessions with a professional pianist. Participants are encouraged to attend all concerts that are part of the VCM Summer Academy Strings programs. Registrants must submit a repertoire list of recently studied and/or performed solo, chamber and orchestral works. Senior Strings students should arrive with one solo work that is prepared, and one that is a "work in progress". PDFs of chamber music and orchestral repertoire will be sent a few weeks before the beginning of the Academy.
