Ensembles - Chamber Music Ensembles
Chamber music provides an invaluable learning experience because of the way it challenges each student to produce independent musical lines in harmony with each other! It stresses skills such as phrasing, counting, intonation, tone colors, rhythm, cooperation and responsibiity. Each ensemble is a 'team,' working together to produce beautiful music!
Intermediate/Advanced String (or Piano) Trios/Quartet
Intermediate and advanced violinists, violists, and cellists will explor music for different combinations of instruments (anything for one instrument with multiple parts, to string or piano trios or quartet literature). Students will be exposed to music of different periods and styles. The intermediate student should be able to play with vibrato, know positions, and be able to play in a variety of keys, including major and minor scales, 2-3 octaves, and have strong reading skills. Advanced students should have facility in high positions as well as a variety of bow strokes and the ability to play double stops. Students are encouraged to contact their instructor or Linda Tajima if interested. An advanced pianist may apply upon recommendation of his/her instructor.
