Description: 

Using their hallmark teaching techniques, the Cavani String Quartet will lead inspiring chamber music education in the Chamber Music Intensive Online program this fall. Emphasis will be placed on interpersonal dynamics and musical curiosity as catalysts for empowering passionate chamber music performances at the highest level. Over the course of three sessions, participants will delve into the lives and string quartets of Beethoven and Bridgetower through the lens of the inquisitive performer:

The four components of each session will be:

• Collaboration and rehearsal techniques
• Investigating Beethoven and Bridgewater’s world, their personal histories, and their scores.
• Breakout sectionals - technical problem solving for impactful performances, including creative fingerings, bowings, cueing, and helpful tips and tricks.
• Communal play-in: everybody plays with a pre-recorded Cavani String Quartet.
