The 29th Year of Chamber Music Holidays and Festivals
Since 1982 people have come from all over the world to enjoy our classical music vacations with like minded people. Come to listen or to play. Come alone, as a couple or with a group of friends. While string players are in the majority, we welcome wind players and pianists. Preformed quartets or individuals all welcome. Players have ample opportunities for rehearsing and being coached, while listeners absorb the musical atmosphere and gain a greater understanding of music. A unique feature of these Holiday Festivals is that the coaches, members of world famous quartets, often play with the groups they are coaching.
Outstanding concerts and operas in superb venues - Accommodation in luxury or four star centrally located hotels - Gourmet meals in a sociable, informal atmosphere - Extensive sightseeing, visits to places of musical interest -
Scheduled chamber music playing, coaching by world famous musicians, informal parties to meet some of the world renowned musicians.
