The Manitou Chamber Music Festival & String Quartet Program is a one-of-a-kind two week mentoring program for string chamber music. It is uniquely tailored to equip young chamber musicians to be competitive on a national level.

At our two week musical retreat, you will prepare and perform one complete string quartet and one complete string quintet or piano quintet, have two daily coachings and rehearsal with world-class faculty, study your repertoire from a historical/theoretical perspective, attend classes and concerts, and perform for enthusiastic audiences.
