Monday: Austin Chamber Music Center

Just yesterday, the music camp I had been in for the last two weeks ended.  I'm getting back into the swing of things and writing my blog posts again, so today's is going to be short.

Playing Spohr's Concerto for Quartet and Orchestra with the Aeolus Quartet

Over the last two weeks, I've seen more than ten famous classical music groups perform, taken masterclasses from three of them, and even performed with one of them.  I've taken lessons from some of the best teachers in the state, played with other young musicians, and made some of the best friends I'll have. This is my fourth year at this camp and without them I would never have had experiences like this or played at venues such as the Long Center, Bates Recital Hall, and Antone's, or to play with artists such as the Aeolus Quartet and Mother Falcon.  It's been one of the best three weeks ever and I just wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone who made this camp possible, to all of my awesome friends, and the fantastic teachers.

Here's one of the amazing performances from fellow players at camp, playing the Handel-Halverson Passacaglia.
