Collaborate ~ Communicate ~ Create

LAMP Chamber Players is a weekly program that trains young musicians in the skills of chamber music. After an initial audition, students will be placed in small groups that will be coached by Lee Taylor and Greg Sauer. During each 90-minute session, the groups will be coached on their assigned repertoire in addition to participating in discussions centered on relevant music history, performance practice and music theory. As a large group, students will practice sight reading, chorale playing and mindfulness exercises. The 10-class term will culminate in a masterclass and final performance.

Players at various stages in their musical development are encouraged to apply!  Preformed groups are welcome

Registration for Spring 2026 is full. Please email us if you would like to be on a waitlist!
