Chamber Music

wpe61608.gif (62704 bytes)
Chamber music groups take children playing any instrument, whether they have learned it at EYM or elsewhere. Children of similar ages and stages are put into groups of between 3 and 6 players of varying instruments.  These classes are open to string players, woodwind players, brass players, pianists, guitarists or harpists.  Before a child is ready to benefit from chamber music, (s)he must be secure enough both musically and instrumentally, to be able to play his/her own part, while other members of the group play different parts.  Individual instrumental teachers would be able to advise whether an individual child is ready for this. 

Chamber music groups are open to children in P5 and above; there is no upper age limit, although currently the oldest pupils are 15. 

Classes are coached by Mary Robb or Jean Murray.
