Founded in 2011, the Rosamunde Summer Music Academy is one of Canada's best summer programs for string players of all ages and skill levels! Due to COVID-19 we are unable to offer our Mini Rosie program for beginner students aged 5-12 in 2020.
For advanced and intermediate level students aged 10-24, Virtual Rosamunde 2020 will offer private lessons, master classes, technique classes involving uploading and downloading videos for both teachers and students in addition to real-time sessions. Chamber music coaching will be offered to students who are able to form their own groups. Remote video collaboration projects will be facilitated. Rosamunde Virtual 2020 will celebrate the life and music of Beethoven with a survey of his music and a more in depth study of the sonatas for violin and cello while violists will look at his quartets.
On demand, improvisation/composition will be offered. Student orientation will begin in June. We look forward to embarking on this new adventure with you!
The significant number of student recitals that we offer usually comprises a vital part of the festival. All concerts are open to the public and free for Rosamunde participants.
