This summer, the Chamber Music Festival of San Miguel de Allende has created the Synergy Brass Student program. This is an exciting new opportunity for college-aged brass players and graduating high school seniors (ages 18 and up). The Synergy Brass Quintet will be in residence for 18 days, acting as guest artists in the festival and brass faculty for this program. Twenty students from the United States will have the opportunity to travel to San Miguel and receive instruction from the members of SBQ as well as gaining valuable experience preparing and performing chamber music. The cost for students is far from prohibitive, in fact the fee includes tuition as well as room and board yet still remains far below the fees associated with many comparable summer festivals. For $2,000.00 US, students receive housing, breakfast every day, complimentary transportation to and from Leon International Airport, complimentary transportation to various performances and entertainment opportunities, tickets to performances by chamber groups such as Ying Quartet, Miami String Quartet, Quinteto de Alientos de Bellas Artes, Ahn Trio, and Poulenc Trio, various guided tours of the city and significant historical attractions in the area, and many other benefits. For instruction, students receive fourteen coachings in various ensembles and private instruction from the Synergy Brass Quintet, plus masterclasses with visiting artists. They will prepare for multiple concerts, with the potential opportunity to perform in joint concert with the Synergy Brass and they'll receive complimentary tickets to all of the professional performances going on during the festival.
This festival is a great value and presents students with a wealth of experiences that will inspire growth in their lives musically and personally.
