The YCM Academy is designed for advanced young musicians aged 12 and above who would like to spend an intensive week making music together and learning and growing together.

Individual applications for violin, viola, cello, and piano are very welcome. Selected applicants will be placed in matching ensembles. Existing ensembles are also warmly invited to apply together.

The Academy focuses on chamber music: You will work daily with your ensemble and our chamber music faculty, who will share their wealth of experience and enthusiasm for chamber music with you. Individual lessons, chamber orchestra or octet sessions, and daily concerts complement the intensive ensemble work.
