KUHMO CHAMBER MUSIC COURSES, FINLAND
Hiu Sing Fan violin
The Kuhmo Festival and courses are known the world over for their quality. I was lucky enough to be sponsored by the Musicus society in Hong Kong to attend in 2022. In Kuhmo you are completely immersed in music, and I can’t overstate how beautiful the place is and how friendly the people are. Having the festival running simultaneously during the course is a big bonus. Not only can you see countless concerts for free, but you can watch your tutors in action. It’s incredible how they go straight from rehearsal and concerts to lessons. I remember having one lesson at 8pm after my teacher’s concert. Luckily, as it never gets dark, there’s plenty of time for music making!
It's a very busy schedule, and although you can take days off, I enjoyed the intensity. I would wake up around 8am, have breakfast in the cafeteria – where the artists would also eat – then start my musical day. I had my lessons with my wonderful teachers Mi-Kyung Lee and Marc Danel, then watched other people’s lessons, went to concerts and made use of the many practice rooms available. I also enjoyed the integration of Finnish culture. We could eat Finnish food and, as per Finnish tradition, would be asked to take off our shoes for rehearsals and concerts. It was the first time I’d ever performed in socks! A very special part of the course is to experience the true musicianship of the artists and teachers. Music is so embedded in the way they act and think, and it’s very inspiring as a young musician to see this. The town is so small, you see them riding bikes and just going about their lives, and they are very open to answering any questions. It doesn’t feel like a student–teacher relationship. It’s a very heart-warming experience. In Kuhmo, you are surrounded by beautiful music, meet beautiful musicians and are in a beautiful place: what more could you ask for?

IN MY EXPERIENCE Player
DONEGAL FIDDLE SCHOOL, IRELAND
Brendan O’Gara fiddle
I have attended the Donegal Fiddle School since 2009, and it’s always an interesting learning experience and great social occasion. I have known about the fiddle school for a while, with my father being from the area, and my wife attending in the early 90s. Glencolmcille is a beautiful setting and the atmosphere among tutors and participants is extremely relaxed and informal. Weather permitting, we sometimes have classes outdoors! The tutors are very approachable and friendly.
The school consists of ten classes, each catering to different levels, from beginner to advanced. You audition on the first day, and players are then streamed into the appropriate class, although it is possible to change if necessary. Depending on level, the group classes range from about six to twelve people. The classes focus on learning Donegal fiddle tunes by ear and improving your technique, although some tutors also provide notation for the music. I feel I have definitely improved and continue to do so because of these classes, both in terms of technique and ability to learn by ear. There is a very casual atmosphere, with people staying in a mix of hostels, B&Bs, pubs and private houses.
We are also offered dance classes and talks about music, and concerts and céilís are organised for everyone to attend. Tutors play with us in casual sessions after classes until late at night. The sessions are very inclusive and diverse; you could be a beginner and sit next to a tutor. I would recommend the school to anyone keen on learning the fiddle, whatever level you are at. It’s truly a unique experience. At the end of the week your playing will have improved, you’ll have made many friends and had a very sociable few days. It’s hard to beat!

IN MY EXPERIENCE Player
VALDRES SOMMERSYMFONI, NORWAY
ALEXANDER APPLEGREEN
Maya Crawford-Phillips violin
I heard about the Valdres Sommersymfoni from my teacher and players who had really enjoyed it. I attended the first time last summer, and there’s no doubt I want go back! It’s incredible what they are able to pack into the space of just one week. I had private lessons and chamber music rehearsals daily, and there were also two student concerts every day that we could attend. We would then play in one of them during the week, and also at the chamber concert at the end of the week. It was so inspiring to hear other musicians of my age from around the world playing. You learn a lot from seeing other people perform.
We are encouraged to meet and talk to people we don’t know; it’s a very welcoming environment. The first day I arrived, there were some introductory games and a barbecue. And even though a lot of the participants knew each other from Oslo, the fact they were already close made it even easier to get to know all of them. In our down time we also played games like volleyball and table tennis, and the tutors joined in.
One of my favourite parts was my private lessons. I still remember dancing around in one of them! I always came out feeling so inspired, with a new perspective on playing. Everyone wants to share what they’ve learnt and experienced in their lessons, which is very encouraging. The busy schedule also prepares you well for life outside. You need to be able to take in what your teacher has said very quickly in order to have it prepared for your concert coming up in maybe a few days. And preparing a chamber piece in four days is challenging, but essential training. For those wondering whether to attend, I would say that even if you feel insecure, everyone is so welcoming. There is every level of player in attendance, and everyone can get something out of the experience.

Surrounded by mountains and lakes, it’s very nice after a long day to relax and have a swim with your fellow students.
A typical day of the two-week long course starts with breakfast with the other students. People then go to practise individually, followed by masterclasses, in which you either play or listen. Chamber music lessons then take place. Afterwards you can decide whether to watch concerts or relax. There is always concert you can attend for free as a participant – either in Lugano or somewhere else in the area.
A memory that stands out is firstly playing Souvenir de Florence with both fellow students and teachers. It was wonderful to play alongside those we had studied with. Also, I was fortunate enough to lead the bass section of the inaugural festival orchestra in 2022. We played Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony in the Lugano Cathedral. You could really feel the energy of the orchestra and conductor, even though the temperature was over 35 degrees!
Working with the tutors was very inspiring, and you learn a lot from others’ lessons. Because of the high level of both participants and teachers, and because it is very international, you can get a lot of possibilities to create connections that will be useful in the future. There are so many ways to grow as a musician in the course. It’s not just about taking masterclasses, but also playing chamber music, performing in the orchestra, meeting other people and playing in concerts. It is so much more than just a summer course!

IN MY EXPERIENCE Player
DARTINGTON MUSIC: SUMMER SCHOOL AND FESTIVAL (UK)
Daniel Pukach violin
TAMAR LEWINSOHN
I heard about the Dartington Summer School from Brodsky Quartet violinist Krysia Osostowicz. Consequently I attended the advanced string quartet course as a member of the Waldstein Quartet. We were tutored by all the Brodskys and it was geared towards performing a cycle of all 15 Shostakovich string quartets between all the course’s groups. The tutors were inspirational. Not only did we get a deep dive into such a profound composer, but we felt like we were working with fellow colleagues on a joint project.
The school holds many different courses during the summer for varying instruments, ensembles and levels. It’s very possible that you will find the right course for you, no matter your interest, instrument or level. In my course there were three string quartets. We worked both as groups and in sideby-sides with the Brodskys. Our days were filled with coaching sessions, rehearsals and three concerts a day. It was really packed and we accomplished a lot during our time. Seeing as there are so many other courses, you also get to meet so many interesting people with many areas of expertise.
The atmosphere at Dartington is very welcoming. And even though it was intense, it was a nice getaway from everything. I fondly remember the time we had with the Brodsky Quartet outside rehearsals. We played croquet, had drinks and got to know them as human beings, not just world-class musicians. Forming that kind of a connection was very special.
My experience at Dartington has definitely had an impact on my career. At some of the performances, there were organisers who then booked us for future performances. And being tutored by such a renowned group in an environment with so many great musicians, you get to know people in the industry. I'd recommend it to whoever is considering going.

IN MY EXPERIENCE Player
RAVINIA STEANS MUSIC INSTITUTE, ILLINOIS, US (SEE PAGE 34)
Geneva Lewis viola
MATTHEW HOLLER
I first heard about this programme when I was in high school and decided to attend because of its intensive focus on chamber music and phenomenal faculty. In both summers that I attended I felt very challenged, like I had everything to learn. I got so much guidance from the teachers and learnt a lot from hearing other students play. The opportunity to perform in such a highpressure setting also helped me to face my own challenges with performance nerves.
The atmosphere of the institute is very thoughtfully created by the programme director Miriam Fried. Her guidance is unique and incredibly special. Leading by example, she provides a sacred space for great music to be shared and celebrated and encourages students to delve into all aspects of music and performance. We are expected to dedicate ourselves seriously to the process. And within such a welcoming environment, close friendships are formed every summer.
During the five-week programme, we are put into several chamber groups, and provided with chamber music coaching almost every day, two private lessons a week and masterclass opportunities. Each chamber work is performed in its entirety during the festival, which is a challenging and rewarding goal. A wonderful aspect of the programme is that the faculty rotates throughout the summer, so we have a chance to work with a large number of artists. We also get to see our tutors in action during faculty concerts.
The level of music making at the Institute is at a professional level, so it naturally prepares you well for the professional world. You learn how to collaborate with other musicians and meet those who will be your future colleagues. For anyone with a passion in chamber music and who enjoys a busy atmosphere, I would highly recommended the course.
