Adult Seminars
Ages 18+

Summer 2011

While Rocky Ridge has long been known for summer seminars for young musicians, we also offer several seminars for adults. Pianists, and classical guitarists enjoy specialized instruction and a chance to share their music with other adults from all over the world. In the relaxed atmosphere at Rocky Ridge, adults also enjoy the beautiful mountain setting, nearby hiking, cool evenings, wonderful meals and social gatherings.

 

Piano Seminar June 8 - 12, 2011

Adult Piano Seminar provides a high level of instruction while giving each participant the freedom to establish comfortable goals for themselves and interact with other pianists from around the world. Students will have the opportunity for private lessons, many hours of uninterrupted practice, coaching on technique, masterclasses and lecture-recitals by the resident faculty as well as guest artists.

Guitar Seminar  Not currently scheduled

Adult Guitar Seminar students join other classical guitarists to further their skills. Students receive lessons in a group setting, ensemble coaching and technique classes. The seminar culminates in student and faculty concerts.

 

 

Chamberre   August 17-21, 2011

Chamberre in the Rockies is a non-coached program for mature amateur and professional musicians. It provides a magical setting and opportunities for the participants to play string chamber music, often in sessions pushing late into the night. The participants develop lasting friendships, forged in five days of music, great food, and finish with a public concert. Many players have returned from around the world for more than 20 years. Chamberre and Rocky Ridge have been partners with a common vision for 52 years. In 2008, the partnership was formalized with a merging of the organizations.
