Master Classes will provide a unique opportunity for students to analyze their videotaped performances to build on aspects of stage presence, performance, ensemble technique, and projection. Each day we will explore a different aspect of cello technique, such as “Right-Hand Technique,” “Mastering Thumb Position/Mapping the Cello,” and “Mastering Rhythm.” Students will also have an opportunity to perform with an all-cello ensemble at the final concert on the last day of each session. Students may sign up for either or both sessions.

The Chamber Music Conference and Composers' Forum of the East in Bennington, VT
The Chamber Music Conference is dedicated to amateur instrumentalists who are passionate about music, who seek to develop as chamber musicians, and who believe that music offers infinite possibilities for learning and growth. At the Conference, an outstanding coaching program combines with informal playing, concerts, seminars, and a vibrant Composers' Forum to create an exhilarating musical immersion.
The Conference takes place in July and August on the stunningly situated campus of Bennington College in Bennington, Vermont. Each week, the chamber music program covers chamber music literature from classical to romantic to contemporary, but the four weeks differ in size, format, and character. Many participants choose to attend more than one week each summer.
