July 4-8, 2022, Marie-Victorin Cégep (Montréal)
with Jean-François Guay, Corinne Lanthier, Alfredo Mendoza Ahuatzin and Mathieu Gaulin
The Nelligan Saxophone Quartet offers participants the opportunity to work individually with each member of the quartet and to benefit from their expertise and different approaches in the context of a five-day music camp.
Great importance will be given to chamber music to improve or develp correctness of intonation, listening and interaction between musicians. Because a healthy lifestyle influences greatly musical performance, a portion of each day of the course will be dedicated to some form of physical activity and stretching, all in a fun and relaxed environment.
Registrations start now. In order to be able to offer an optimal experience to everyone, the number of participants will be limited to 16 saxophonists.
Cost for the week: $150
