Summer Violin Institute 2024

June 17-22, 2024

Repertoire choices:

Please consider the repertoire suggestions below as you prepare to attend the SVI. Having several pieces that are already well prepared will give you the flexibility to play different pieces for different teachers.

When you have decided on what you will play while you are here, please email me your list: SummerViolinInstitute@gmail.com. This information is necessary in preparing the daily schedule.

Repertoire recommendation:
You can expect to play in three classes during the week, so please bring works (up to 3)  that you already know quite well. The idea is to bring music that you have already learned, not works-in-progress. You will get the most out of the classes by bringing your most prepared works. You may also include orchestra excerpts. You can choose to play a different piece each time you play or to repeat works.

Examples:

  • concerto
  • sonata with piano
  • virtuoso piece
  • Bach
  • Ysaye
  • caprice – (such as Paganini, Wieniawski, Beriot)
  • orchestra excerpts

Important: When you have decided on what you will play while you are here, please email me your list: SummerViolinInstitute@gmail.com

The classes will take place in McClintock Hall at 70 Arts Circle Drive, Evanston, IL

We will have a welcome meeting at 9:15 in the hall, and the morning class with Professor Kantor will begin at 9:30.
