Nearly Spring String Festival!
The adjudication portion of the festival is open to both solo and ensemble players and will be held in an open-room masterclass format. Throughout the weekend, participants will be exposed to high-level presentations, professional instruction in both traditional and contemporary music, and have the chance to explore workshops designed to be relevant, informative, and just plain fun!
