The CMC Atlanta Performance and Production Catalog offers several different opportunities for string players. Players can sign up for a Performance Workshop that will emphasize playing in small ensembles. Stylistic options include classical chamber music, jazz combo, rock or fusion band, and more.
Other String Workshops and Camps focus on educational experiences for a specific age or level of skill and experience and skill development. For example, our String Rookie camps are ideal for beginners or players who have a bit of experience or ones who are rusty from a gap in studies. , Advanced Chamber Music and Strings Now! (which focuses on strings and technology), is designed for passionate players who want to gather with other advanced students to pick up new skills and insights.
