COLORADO COLLEGE SUMMER MUSIC FESTIVAL

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
The mission of the Colorado College Summer Music Festival is to provide the highest caliber, inclusive educational experience for pre-professional musicians, connecting them with preeminent performance faculty as they prepare to launch rewarding careers, while simultaneously providing vibrant and diverse concerts celebrating legacy, contemporary, and underrepresented classical music and thereby enriching the community of the Pikes Peak region
Fellows may perform in two to four orchestra concerts, two to three chamber midday concerts, chamber performances in two to five outreach events (depending on the year). Four to six fellows are chosen by audition to perform concerto readings with the orchestra in performances that are open to the public. Faculty perform in a five-concert/two-recital concert series, and many fellows are given the opportunity to perform in these—with their faculty—as well. WHAT DISTINGUISHES THIS PROGRAM
CC Summer Music Festival, now in its 40th year, is a three-week intensive training for pre-professional musicians. All accepted applicants attend on full fellowship (free tuition, room and board). Orchestra, chamber groups, private lessons and mentoring, community outreach, small faculty to fellow ratio for a very personal experience.
