Grades 6+
String Summer Intensive – Session 3
Led by Joshua Stone
In-Person
Intermediate and advanced string students, ages 11-18, will develop their knowledge of string instruments, technique, literature and other music-making skills while collaborating with other young musicians. Three 1-week sessions will be offered, with each week consisting of in-person classes Monday through Friday. Students may register for one or more sessions, as each will be unique and cover different skills.
Session 3 | Working with an Accompanist
Playing with an accompanist is a skill students don’t often learn. During this session, students will learn a new solo piece and work with an accompanist during the second half of the session. Repertoire will be selected at the beginning of the week, or students may bring a piece they are already working on.
Students are asked to bring their own instruments; however, CAP can provide instruments if needed.
