Chamber music develops interpersonal skills in a small ensemble setting (ie. trio, quartet, quintet) where students have their own part to prepare and they can express themselves individually.
Students at the ISO, CSO and YS level are able to participate in chamber music, and coachings are scheduled based on group and coach availability during the fall and spring semesters. Students are encouraged to get together to rehearse without their coach throughout the semester.
Students must be in a DUSS orchestra in order to participate in Chamber Music.
Students interested in chamber music should indicate their interest in "Chamber" when registering online so that they can receive the necessary information to participate.
All students interested in participating in a Chamber Group will send a video of a scale and ~3 minutes of a solo piece for assessment (link to instructions below). This is for all students–new and returning–interested in playing in a chamber group in order to help us put together cohesive groups. When submitting your assessment video for chamber group placement, include "Chamber audition", student name, and instrument in the email title. In the email body, include student's name, age, and previous chamber experience, including pieces previously played in the body of the email.
Deadline for DUSS chamber music video submissions: Thursday, August 29, 2024, 11:59pm.
