This course, led by clarinettist Heather Roche and cellist Erik Borgir, explores chamber music of our time as a dynamic space for collaboration, experimentation, and artistic exchange. Rather than a traditional masterclass structure, the course emphasises process and discovery. Through coached rehearsals, collaborative workshops, and open discussions, participants will investigate rehearsal strategies, communication within ensembles, interpretative decision-making, and the practical realities of contemporary chamber music-making today. Participants will have opportunities to form new collaborations, and to perform for the wider festival community. Welcome to the international summer academy at the idyllic lakeside town Viitasaari!Thu, 12 Mar 2026 14:24:39 +0000https://www.musicalchairs.info/de/courses/10948https://www.musicalchairs.info/de/courses/10948This course is open to instrumentalists of all instruments, vocalists, improvisers, and electronic musicians of any practice who are interested in the social dynamics, ethics, and performance practices of collectively-led ensembles. The course offers a collaborative approach to the interpretation of open-form ensemble works by experimental composer-improvisers Annea Lockwood, George Lewis, Pauline Oliveros, and Terry Riley. The course is facilitated by the flutist and interdisciplinary artist Claire Chase - a teacher at Harvard and Juilliard universities. A special component of the course will be the presence of the composer Annea Lockwood, who will work with participants on her improvisation-based ensemble work bayou-borne. The course will culminate in public performances at the Time of Music festival. Welcome to the international festival & summer academy at the idyllic lakeside town Viitasaari, Finland!
