Adult Chamber Music Play-In
Sunday, November 3, 12:45 – 3:45 pm
One Conservatory Drive, Hingham
Register by October 4 for priority participation!
Have you ever wanted to experience playing in a small ensemble like a piano trio, string quartet, or woodwind quintet? Whether you are an old hand at chamber music or just looking to get started, this “Play-In” is for you.
The South Shore is home to many enthusiastic and talented amateur musicians. While numerous organizations in the area provide amateur musicians with a chance to play in a large ensemble such as a band or orchestra, opportunities to play in a small ensemble are more difficult to come by. To fill this void, several area musicians are teaming with the South Shore Conservatory (SSC) to create regular opportunities for playing in small groups by building a community of amateur players who are eager to delve into the chamber music repertoire.
SSC will host a series of Play-In events, where amateur musicians can meet each other and make music. Play-In activities will be facilitated by a small group of SSC teaching artists, who will assist the participants as they read through pre-selected pieces from the chamber music repertoire in small groups.
This Play-In event is open to amateur musicians who play a string or woodwind instrument (including French horn), or piano. To the extent possible, participants will be organized into groups and repertoire for each group will be sent out prior to the event.
Questions? Please contact Todd Swavey.
Cost: $20 (upon confirmation of your registration*)
* Please be aware that, due to space constraints, we are limited to approximately 40 musicians for this event. While registration will be first come, first served to the extent possible, some consideration may be given to instrumental balance. Once your registration form is received, you will be sent a link to complete your payment online.
This Play-In is made possible, in part, through the support of Associated Chamber Music Players. The mission of ACMP is to stimulate and expand the playing of chamber music for pleasure among musicians worldwide, of all backgrounds, ages and skill levels, by connecting people and supporting chamber music activities for individuals, groups and institutions.
