Participants will gain new insights and rehearsal techniques while rehearsing and playing the repertoire. It will be an active day! Teachers are encouraged to exercise your primary or well-developed secondary instrument skills for this event. Repertoire will include pedagogical compositions, arrangements, and eclectic styles, as well as great standard repertoire.
