Top 10 Reasons To Apply to #Heifetz2020 #5 - Community Outreach: The Heifetz Institute is committed to having its musicians participate in community outreach appearances including performances at local schools, businesses, clubs, assisted living facilities, local church services, civic organizations, public libraries, and community events large and small. These provide a valuable experience for our young artists, connecting them closer to members of our community, and bringing their artistry to an audience that may otherwise never have the means or ability to venture inside a concert hall. The Institute seeks to provide access to world-class concert music for all members of our community by removing financial and physical barriers to attendance. In 2019, the Institute received the “Non Profit Business Excellence Award” from the Greater Augusta County Chamber of Commerce.

Top 10 Reasons To Apply to #Heifetz2020 #7: Performance & Communication Training is the “special sauce” that sets the Heifetz Institute apart from all other summer learning experiences for string players, and informs every aspect of our program. It strives to empower young performers to perfect their artistry by developing their physical, mental, and emotional range and connecting these with the music they play. They also provide a great opportunity to forge powerful interactions with other Heifetz students. Program Director Daniel Pettrow will lead modules in Speaking in Public and Drama, and will oversee modules in Finding Your Voice (Christina Courtin), Movement (Anabella Lenzu), Yoga/Wellness for Musicians (Melissa White and Elena Urioste), and Freedom of Expression (John Gregorio and John Heginbotham). #playerswanted #cello #violin #viola #classicalmusic #chambermusic #stringquartet #stauntonva #virginiaisformusiclovers #shenandoahvalley #yoga #wellness #vamusic #fitness #publicspeaking #freedomofexpression @visitshenandoahvalley @visitstaunton @visitvirginia ...
