Every day, as a participant, you will discover your strengths and correctable weaknesses on the podium. Through daily podium time, you will have the opportunity to work on a varied repertory as you conduct ensembles of varying sizes, including, a string orchestra, a chamber orchestra, and a full symphony orchestra. A matchless faculty of conductors and composers are here to assist each participant every scheduled hour of every day. The every-day experience on the podium provides an effective collaboration between faculty and student. These are not people dealing in theory alone.
Standard repertory is explored.
The learning experience here is cumulative and is not confined to formal sessions. There is no competition here for prizes or favors. The competition is within yourself to be much better than good at what you are doing. Participants find in each other shared attitudes, impressions, and ambitions. Many carry the relationships formed here far into their careers.
