Webinar, Mock Audition, Chamber Music & Final Performance

As an integral part of our curriculum, we strongly encourage students to study Orchestral Excerpts. Over the course of thirteen sessions, participants will immerse themselves in a diverse array of musical styles, dive into different articulations, and refine techniques to gain a deeper understanding of orchestral music. To put their newfound skills to the test, a mock audition will be conducted during the first week of December. The standout performer in this audition will be rewarded with a special prize generously sponsored by Lemur Music. 

Chamber music preparation, an indispensable aspect of our program, provides students with a practical platform to apply their listening skills within a performance context and prepares them for the real moment of performance. During the latter part of the semester, students will be grouped with their peers for the opportunity to perform chamber music, including duets, trios, and other double bass arrangements.
