On April 15, 2019, we hosted four student string quartets in our annual master class. Talented student groups performed well-prepared quartet movements by Borodin, Mozart and Beethoven at the Radius Center in downtown San Antonio. Each member of the Camerata San Antonio core string quartet worked with the students to help make their performances even better. All this, in front of an audience of interested patrons!
The Brandeis High School Quartet was chosen by the Camerata SA Quartet to open our season finale on May 12 and San Antonio Symphony patrons can hear the Quartet VIVA perform their Beethoven before the Symphony’s final classics concerts of the 2018-2019 season at the Tobin Center!
On April 24, 2017, we hosted four student string quartets in our annual master class. Talented student groups performed well-prepared quartet movements by Borodin, Ravel, Grieg and Prokofiev in the Seddon Recital Hall on the campus of the University of the Incarnate Word. Each member of the Camerata San Antonio core string quartet worked with the students to help make their performances even better. All this, in front of an audience of interested patrons!
Our FREE annual string quartet master class is coming up soon! April 24 at 7:30 in the Seddon Recital Hall at UIW. We are still accepting applicants for the three performing slots. We will choose three groups on Monday, April 10. Students are also encouraged to attend as observers. One performing group maybe selected to open our season finale concerts April 28-30!
This week the quartet is in teaching mode as the artist-faculty at the Cadenza Academy’s String Quartet Seminar. We’ll be coaching four student quartets (and one quintet) in music by Haydn, Mozart, Dvorak and Villa-Lobos. Matthew and Stacey will also be working with six young super-talented violin students! We’re looking forward to the finale concert on July 22, where the kids will put what they’ve learned into action on stage at the University of the Incarnate Word’s Recital Hall.
