Participation is limited to eight groups which will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Each group receives one coaching session in the morning and one in the afternoon. While not being coached, participants may rest/practice or form ad hoc groups to play additional music.
Coaches include clarinetist Thomas Hill, violinist Judith Eissenberg, violist Marcus Thompson and pianist Andrew Armstrong.
Tuition covers coaching, breakfast, lunch and refreshments and is based on the size of your group:
- trio & quartet: $145 pp
- quintet & up: $130 pp
Tuition is non-refundable.
Location The workshop will take place at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, on its main campus with outstanding music facilities.
Application deadline has been extended to March 17, 2017. Participants should include on the application the name of the work that has been selected for study. These may be complete works or individual movements (e.g., Mozart Piano Quartet in E-flat , K. 493; 1st and 2nd movements of Beethoven String Quartet in B-flat, Op. 130).
