Young Artist Institute Solo Showcase
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
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, you are invited to watch and support these incredible students, who showcase their amazing virtuosity around the city for the Portland community to enjoy.
This showcase will highlight the solo repertoire they have been preparing.
The violinists, violists, and cellists selected for the YAI program are among North America and Asia's top high school string players. The 2023 students were finalists in the most distinguished competitions in the world, such as the Menuhin and Sphinx Competitions, and 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.
