Kingsway Chamber
Music Festival
Ensemble playing is an integral part of music
education and a truly intimate and inspiring
experience. Chamber musicians develop a variety
of musicianship, technical and social skills. They
learn to listen to each other to match articulation,
intonation, dynamics and tonal colour while
establishing musical balance and communicating
their unique ideas. Students learn rehearsal and
performance techniques, strengthen reading skills,
expand theoretical and historical knowledge and
develop critical listening skills – all while mastering
challenging and rewarding repertoire.

Daily Workshops: Students participate in daily warm-up and specialty
workshops (ear-training, sight-reading hand
drumming, conducting) focusing on enhancing
musicianship, ensemble and performance skills.
Masterclasses/Open Rehearsals: Ensembles ‘perform’ chamber works in progress for
one another and learn about constructive feedback.
Visiting Ensemble: Visiting artists join us to provide a fresh perspective
on performing music from the past as well as
contemporary repertoire. Past visitors: Elixir Baroque
Ensemble - violins, viola da gamba and harpsichord
demonstrating Baroque performance practices - and
Dévah Quartet - electric strings playing classical to
popular repertoire with new twists.
Orchestra & Piano Repertoire: Faculty and students collaborate in a ‘conductorless’
orchestra to explore a variety of chamber-style
repertoire. In addition, the full ensemble creates and
performs an original composition - the outcome of
daily composition workshops where students learn
to mold musical ideas into workable forms. In
addition to playing with strings, pianists also learn
and perform interesting four-hand to six-hand piano
repertoire ranging from classical to jazz.
