Drawing on the vast experiences of a diverse teaching team, this intensive, virtual summer seminar will cover a broad array of subjects relevant to cello teachers at all levels of experience. Topics this year include setting up a beginner with a healthy foundation, explorations in shifting and vibrato, utilizing improvisation in technical practice, supplements to the Suzuki books, unlocking the power of effective practice, priorities for early teaching and many more.
Our classes are designed to bolster pedagogical knowledge and skills, with opportunities for participants to engage directly with our faculty in both formal and informal Q & A settings. Faculty in 2024 include master teachers Paul Katz, Richard Aaron, Mike Block, Erin Breene, Horacio Contreras, Elizabeth Glennon, Madeleine Golz, Sandra Halleran, Kee-Hyun Kim, Ken Kubota, Jisoo Ok, David Ying and Jeffrey Zeigler.
While live participation is encouraged, all virtual classes are recorded and made available to registered participants to view on demand until the end of the calendar year.
Program registration is now open. Individual class registrations will be available at a later date as space permits.
