JUNIOR

<< back to Courses

On the JUNIOR courses the coaching sessions are slightly longer to enable increasingly advanced works to be studied.

In chamber music coaching sessions two works are studied and performed.

Musicianship classes and projects cover a variety of topics including History, Composition, Improvisation, Form and Performance Exercises.

Dalcroze Eurhythmics addresses musicianship through a holistic approach engaging the whole body through movement.

In Orchestra students learn the disciplines of rehearsing and performing as members of a larger string group.

Each course ends with an Open Day of workshops and concerts, and on summer courses there is a Cream Tea Concert. All students perform in at least one concert.
