AlpenKammerMusik’s strength lies in its diversity. We have had participants as young as 18, as well as participants in their 80s. Whether you are an undergraduate student at a conservatory, a member of an emerging string quartet, or a dedicated amateur, AlpenKammerMusik can provide a level of collaboration and instruction that will appropriately challenge you. Participants are placed in 2-3 carefully chosen groups by level which have daily rehearsals. Most groups will include a member of our outstanding faculty, and all groups receive regular coaching. AlpenKammerMusik’s focus is on the canon of chamber music for strings, winds, voice, and piano. Occasionally, we may also bring in other instruments, such as guitar and percussion. Applicants make repertoire requests when applying, and requests are taken into consideration when building a balanced program for the festival. The vocal component of AKM is an unusual and integral part of our festival. For some of our participant singers and instrumentalists, it is the first opportunity they have had to collaborate in a chamber music setting. The interplay of text and music, and of voice and instruments has proven to be enlightening and satisfying for all involved. In addition to the intensive rehearsal schedule, AKM presents master classes, lectures, and individual instruction. Read more about AlpenKammermusik Hide
