POSTPONED: Madison Bach Musicians
press release: Covid-19 UPDATE posted April 17
We continue to plan cautiously for our 2020 workshop knowing that the situation continues to unfold and changes may be necessary. As a result, we have extended the application deadline until June 1. Our Stay at Home Order in Wisconsin is due to be lifted on May 27, and it is likely we will have a better sense of whether we will be able to gather in July by then. We will not collect tuition until we know that we will be able to proceed, and if we must cancel the workshop, application fees will be returned. Thank you for your patience during this uncertain time. We look forward to the time when it is safe to gather to make music together.
Madison Bach Musicians is excited to offer a Summer Chamber Music Workshop over four days in July focusing on historically informed performance of baroque and classical music. This workshop is open to intermediate and advanced players of flute, recorder, violin, viola, cello, piano, fortepiano and harpsichord instruments who are high school age and older.
Participants will be assigned to an ensemble group based on ability and music will be sent in advance to allow musicians to practice and learn their parts beforehand. The workshop will include ensemble coaching and rehearsal times, master classes, group lunches, a faculty concert and a final closing concert for a supportive and appreciative audience.
Concerts:
Faculty Concert–Wednesday, July 29 at 7:30 pm ($15 admission for general public)
Closing Concert–Friday, July 31 at 1:00 pm with cake reception following! (This concert is free to the general public, so please invite your friends!)
