The ENCORE Camerata Concert features a conductorless ensemble made up of participants from our Summer Academy.

ENCORE’s Summer Academy is for young solo violinists, violists, and cellists who want a challenging and thought-provoking learning experience. The Summer Academy program focuses on vitalizing the daily routine, building a life-lasting habit of practicing, and is recommended for students preparing for college auditions, competitions, and/or concerts. During the program, students practice intensively, improve technique and artistic communication, and perform in a variety of settings. The three-week program invites fifty exceptionally gifted young artists ages 13 to 23.

Benjamin Britten (1913-1976): Simple Symphony
Hugo Wolf (1860-1903): Italian Serenade
Edward Elgar (1857-1934): Introduction and Allegro
Ernest Bloch (1880-1959): Concerto Grosso No.1 Strings and Piano
