Play for Your LIFE! Chamber Music from Mozart to Led Zeppelin!

Clinic Synopsis:

I believe that chamber music is the most intimate form of musical collaboration, and all teenagers should learn the skills to study rehearse and perform chamber music. This workshop will give teachers ideas on how to implement a chamber music program and encourage their students to enjoy playing chamber music in school and outside. ATTENDEES ARE ABSOLUTELY ENCOURAGED TO BRING YOUR INSTRUMENT TO JOIN IN
