Experience A typical day begins at 8:45 for sign in, and classes start at 9am. Schedules will always include master classes and repertoire and technique classes. All classes are 50 minutes, allowing for ample travel time from classroom to classroom. The full day workshop is from 9 am to 5 pm, but the exact length of the day will depend on the age of the student as well as instrument and playing level. The class offerings are designed to provide a variety of experiences: students will have approximately 15-minute lessons in their master classes, as well as 50-minute group and fiddle classes. More advanced students will have more playing time, including orchestra and chamber music, while younger students will participate in activities that allow for movement, creative play, and time away from their instruments.
