My students are offered the opportunity to rehearse and perform in "additional" cello ensemble classes. forming cello duets, trios, quartets, and quintets. Several of these groups have been chosen in the YOCJ chamber music series, as well as Music Fest. The groups perform regularly in our studio recitals as well!
These classes offer a wonderful way for cellists to gain a variety of experiences, through classical, rock and folk music:
gaining confidence performing and expressing themselves musically
improvising
making friends and sharing the joy of playing cello and sharing ideas about music
Also working with Joshua Suslak my dear friend, colleague and accompanist for over 20 years
quartets
piano trios
duos
string trios
Each year we have two studio recitals at Dutch Neck Presbyterian Church.
