FREE Young Artist Institute Solo Showcase #2
In 2022, CMNW launched the Young Artist Institute (YAI), a new intensive education program for 16 talented string players from around the world, ages 14-18. Each week, we invite our community to watch and support the incredible students of the Young Artist Institute. The Portland community can enjoy the amazing virtuosity and precociousness of these musicians around the city.
This showcase will highlight the solo repertoire they have been preparing.
The violinists, violists, and cellists selected for the YAI program are among the top high school string players from North America and Asia. The 2023 students have been finalists in the most distinguished competitions in the world such as the Menuhin and Sphinx Competitions, and they hail from prestigious preparatory programs at the New England Conservatory, San Francisco Conservatory, Colburn Academy, Juilliard School, Korea National University of the Arts, and Portland’s own Portland Youth Philharmonic.
Experience the Young Artist Institute musicians as they grow and evolve throughout their time with CMNW this summer!
