Kinhaven Summer Music Programs

• Senior Session
• Junior Session
• Adult Piano Workshop
• Adult Chamber Music Workshop

Kinhaven has an experienced and dedicated music faculty. We choose teachers as much for their sensitivity as for their professional excellence. Most of our Kinhaven faculty teach in universities and colleges or perform in professional orchestras. All are graduates of major conservatories and are active performers and teachers. Outside the studio they might be on your softball team, or join you on the "sitting-hill." Most students find their teachers are more than teachers; they are friends and companions too.

The student body of Kinhaven's Senior Session is based on the size of a full symphony orchestra, with double winds and brasses; we also accept six to eight pianists. Orchestra seatings and chamber music assignments change weekly. Throughout the summer you will perform varied styles of music, play with many different musicians, and experience various positions in the orchestra.

You may or may not have professional ambitions; what matters is that you love to play. Our program is designed to help you grow in musical appreciation, sharpen your performance skills, and allow you time and space to explore your own creative potential.
