Your registration fee includes t-shirt and Tuesday night teen activity. Furthermore, the family registration fee will be $30. However, the family registration fee will be $60 starting March 1.

We encourage anyone wanting a more intensive chamber music experience to also register for Chamber Days, which begins on June 15th. You may do so by selecting “Chamber Days” for registration. However, this seminar is limited to the first 32 students to register.

Age and Ability Requirements

The Suzuki book level requirements are as follows:

Violin Books 9+
Viola Books 6+
Cello Books 7+

Most participants are junior high school and high school students. However, we do not limit by age of student. The ISSI Young Artist Program is not a Suzuki program; therefore, traditional students who meet the playing level requirements will feel very comfortable participating. In other words, you do not need to be a Suzuki Method student to attend the Young Artist Program.

ISSI Young Artist Curriculum

The ISSI Young Artist curriculum is five hours in duration: a master class, chamber group, group performance class and two hours each day of orchestra. Further, the pieces listed below are to be prepared for the group performance class. Additionally, YA students do have a free period, so if they’d like an optional elective, they may choose one. YA students can choose 1 since they have 1 free period during the day. Moreover, if they also choose an 8am enrichment, there’s still space for a 2nd enrichment in their day’s schedule.

NEW: we are excited to offer a full symphony (strings, winds, brass, and percussion) for the Young Artist Program core this year!
