Baroque & Classical Academy Public Masterclass

The Carmel Bach Festival is delighted to announce its Baroque & Classical Academy.

This season, the Festival is pleased to have Joseph Lorang (violin), Alyssa Campbell (violin), William J. Drancsak III (viola), and Adrienne Hyde (cello).

This Festival Baroque & Classical Academy will provide training from internationally acclaimed Bach Festival musicians and learning opportunities at the Carmel Bach Festival. BCA musicians will have a full rehearsal schedule, including guided sessions with mentors, in preparation for the Baroque & Classical Academy Quartet Showcase Concert. Throughout July, BCA musicians will learn how to curate programs, create socially conscious programs, develop audiences, build donor relationships, and more. Musicians will attend educational workshops with Festival musician mentors, film composers, board members, and others to learn skills to help them succeed as professional classical musicians.

The quartet will also enrich the traditional Carmel Bach Festival community by offering free public masterclasses and performing a Showcase Concert featuring a program curated by the BCA musicians with guidance from Festival mentors.
