Skye Carman, lessons for string instruments

Our 2nd Galamian Summer Music Festival was held on the beautiful island of Texel in the Waddenzee (north of the Netherlands). The number of performances increased from two to five and we added a piano coach to our faculty of tree string players, enabling us to perform piano chamber music.

 

Our repertoire included ( or movements from) the following:

Tschaikovsky Sextet "Souvenir de Florence" Schubert C major quintet
Shostakovich piano trio op. 67
Dvorak piano quintet
Mozart piano trio K. 548
Haydn Quartet op. 1 no. 6

Ravel Sonata for Violin and Piano ("Blues") Popper "Requiem" for 3 cellos
