Where the line between teacher and student becomes a path which leads to mentorship, collaboration, and understanding

Festival Participants will enjoy chamber groups for strings, flute, harp, woodwinds, and jazz combos and get to work with some of the finest musicians in the country.

​

We take pride in finding musicians that have performed in all parts of the music industry, from the orchestra hall, big band riser, chamber ensemble, or commercial music setting; students are pleasantly surprised to find the ease with which our faculty slip between genres at the highest level of teaching and performance.
