x2: Mozart’s Clarinet Quintet

Music Academy of the West

Our masterclasses give audiences a glimpse into our fellows’ journey to classical greatness. It’s an opportunity to observe a one-on-one teaching session between teaching artist and fellow.

Violin Masterclasses

A new chamber music curriculum pairing fellows with Academy artists for intensive coachings results in five unique evening concerts. Each event stars the fellows in a curated program of full-length masterworks to music of the 21st century.
As a part of the experience, guests are invited to enjoy complimentary wine during the performance.
