Sorry for the delay in posting anything about this year’s String Quartet Academy. We’ve been busy with daily rehearsals, coachings, and master classes with the Arianna String Quartet, finding time and space to practice over at the hotel, and generally enjoying the wonderful weather here in the Southern Oregon. The students worked on Classical works by Haydn and Mozart during the first week, which culminated in a performance for the opening night of the Britt Classical Season (pictures below). They’ve since been preparing Romantic works by composers ranging from Beethoven to Tchaikovsky in preparation for their final recital on Saturday. Details regarding the program for Saturday will be determined early tomorrow.
Additionally, the participants have been rehearsing the Ravel String Quartet as a chamber orchestra. They will perform this work on the Britt Stage tomorrow night at 7:30 to open for the Britt Orchestra Concert.
In the meantime, enjoy some photos taken throughout our time here:
