Intermediate Courses
Supported by Roundhill Financial Management.
Two day courses for young musicians
"…it was really great working with
so many amazing tutors who were all so lovely too!”
Coached by The Regency Ensemble, these two day intensive courses
are centred on chamber music. Each participant is assigned to a chamber
group based on ability and experience in which there are two coaching
sessions on each of the two days. In addition, everyone is involved
in a chamber orchestra in which participants play alongside tutors
and there are also individual coaching sessions on chamber music parts.
Each course closes with a concert on the Friday evening, which is
given by the participants and incorporates a movement played by The
Regency Ensemble.
Although the courses are non residential course, we have a list of
friends of Regency Chamber Music who offer B&B accommodation during
each course.
