NOW INTRODUCING: Music in the Chamber
Chamber Music at MUSE, Winter 2025
MUSE is launching the first “Music in the Chamber” educational opportunity this coming January! We are excited to partner with Peninsula Symphonic Band’s Director, Jason Palmer, to bring you this hands-on, coached experience!
Do you already have a small group you play with? Sign up and work with accomplished professional music educators and performers to hone your skill and ensemble! Are you new to chamber music or looking for peers to play with? Excellent! You are, of course, welcome and encouraged to join! We will fit you with a group, help you select music, and provide valuable insight as you learn, interact, and perform with your new chamber ensemble!
Benefits:
- Improve your music knowledge base
- Improve your musicianship and musical interpretation skills
- Maintain your abilities during the off-season of your community band
- Motivate you to keep practicing! (We can all use this no matter where we are with our instrument!)
- Raise the caliber of your community group for next season!
- Get to know more local players
- Continue having fun and staying close to your music community
- Experience the beautiful sound of the MUSE concert hall
- Have the opportunity to perform with more of a leadership role as a chamber musician
The benefits are bountiful, to say the least!
