Cello Fest: Hands On Experience From The Best
One of the best and most rewarding outlets for cello playing is found playing in an orchestra. It's the ultimate rush to be part of a team, creating magical music that'll make hearts flutter. In addition, polishing and perfecting the tricky excerpts from the many symphonies and overtures is a great way to level up our instrument game. The theme of this spring’s Cello Clinic is all about these excerpts and the process of using them to audition for orchestras, and we are thrilled to have the legendary Robert deMaine, principal cellist of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, as our guest artist! Get ready to shine and show off your skills at this epic event! Mark your calendars for April 13, 2024, and let's rock this day from 8:30am to 5pm! To register, visit our Cello Fest website.
Have an established cello ensemble? We will be happy to have a faculty member work individually with your ensemble during the day!
