  • NEW for the Young Artist Program! To help students prepare for their YAP Performance Class, preparation videos are due May 1, 2026. If students don’t submit a video, they won’t be assigned a chamber group and will receive an enrichment course instead of a chamber music course.
    • Click here to login to the ISSI portal and submit your preparation videos (DUE May 1)! (Videos should show your progress with the music.  Music does not have to be memorized for the preparation video, but needs to be memorized by the start of ISSI)
