One day workshops for young instrumentalists
These workshops aim to introduce young instrumentalists to chamber
music in a friendly environment. The main focus of each workshop is
chamber group coaching with groups formed according to ability and
experience. The day also includes a large ensemble session where all
participants play together alongside the Regency Ensemble. Each workshop
closes with an informal performance given by the participants and
tutors.
