What is the Chamber Music Institute?

It is a week of sharing with other musicians; of making lifetime friendships; of developing interpersonal skills; and of growing as a musician and an individual. The daily schedule of rehearsals, classes and coaching from our distinguished faculty is a challenging and exhilarating artistic experience.

The combination of an outstanding faculty, the beautiful and historic setting in the heart of Virginia, a rich musical environment and talented students from across the Richmond metro area makes the camp an exciting, memorable and rewarding experience. The Chamber Music Institute offers a supportive and inspiring musical environment for the student musician. Attention is given to individual needs and learning styles. Repertoire selections are tailored to match student abilities. Emphasis will be placed on exercises to reach a student’s development of effective practice skills and performance etiquette. The week will include chamber music rehearsals, music theory, history and musicianship classes. A works-in-progress concert will conclude the week.
