Studio - Schedule

The featured opportunity for the 2012 Studio is to learn the craft and art of composing for string quartet.  This year's camp will feature a residency by VocalEssence. We think no challenge is too difficult if you have the right help and a plan. Our staff and faculty are the help you will need. The plan is "the schedule." 

First week of the Studio:

• Music theory, score study, music analysis from 8-10 every morning
• Workshops with guest artists every day from 10am to noon Tuesday and Wednesday
• Composing time and lessons from 1 to 5pm every day
