Get a head start on your summer with a weekend of small and larger ensemble music in an idyllic retreat center in rural Connecticut. Classes include mixed ensembles, special Medieval and Renaissance topics, early notation ensemble, and all-group playing of grand Renaissance works, for small and large instruments. In the evenings enjoy all-workshop group sessions, a Sunday evening faculty concert and a gala party! The von Huene Workshop is in residence with music and instruments for sale, with the wise counsels of Eric Haas (stop by even if you can’t attend the workshop).
Wisdom House has ample classroom space, with good light and comfortable chairs. The kitchen prepares delicious meals and can accommodate dietary restrictions with advance notice. All classes are under one roof and an elevator helps get luggage and larger instruments from one floor to another.
