The Young Performers Program is designed for advanced young musicians seeking to develop their musicianship through intensive training with a faculty of experienced musicians. Students joining the Young Performers Program are grouped into ensembles with their colleagues according to level of playing and experience. A daily schedule of ensemble rehearsals, workshops, and coachings with the artist-faculty culminates in public performance opportunities.
