MINI ROSIE
Age 12 & under Full day = 9 AM - 4 PM / Half-day = 9 AM - 12 PM Geared towards beginners aged 12 and younger. Students will learn about basic instrument upkeep and participate in daily technique and performance classes, violin or cello ensemble. It's designed to get young children excited about playing, teach them good technical habits, build confidence and help them develop a peer group of like-minded students for friendship and learning. Younger students (~8 years old and under; playing from Suzuki books 1 & 2, or RCM Gr. 1 and lower) will be more suited to the half-day program (9:00-12:00). Mornings include snack time and percussion class with Victoria Sparks! The full-day program (9:00-4:00) is for students playing at a slightly higher level (Suzuki books 3 & 4/RCM Gr. 2-5) and mature enough to handle a full day of instruction (generally aged 8-12). Afternoons include chamber music, theory games, recreational time and some one-on-one instruction. |
CORE
Advanced (age 10 - 24) 9 AM - 4 PM For advanced and intermediate level students aged 10-24, Rosamunde's Core program offers a significant amount of private instruction, accompaniment sessions (with one of our four stellar pianists: Darryl Friesen, Madeline Hildebrand, Leanne Regehr Lee and David Moroz), daily technique and master classes, as well as chamber music coachings and orchestra rehearsals. To further cultivate physical comfort and mental capacity while playing and performing, sessions including Pilates, Alexander Technique, the Feldenkrais Method™ and Peak Performance Psychology will round out the daily schedule. Students should play at a RCM Gr 5 level or higher. |
