JVL SUMMER SCHOOL FOR PERFORMING ARTS

The JVL Summer School for Performing Arts invites young and aspiring musicians to participate in the unique course of the Summer School. The course offers its participants a wonderful opportunity to combine their intensive and highly professional music studies under the tutelage of a distinguished faculty and concert performances with recreational activities. The JVL Summer School for Performing Arts committed to the artistic development of young musicians of all ages. The program of the School includes instrumental and voice private lessons, master classes and workshops, chamber music classes, orchestral and ensemble classes, concert performances, opera program, music theatre program, solo performances with the SSPA orchestras and seminars, as well as the Piano Teacher Professional Development Program. Individual instruction is only one part of the JVL curriculum. By placing special emphasis on chamber music, JVL SSPA gives students the opportunity to work in small groups where their individual contributions can be appreciated and critiqued. Opportunities for performance are also given to many chamber groups throughout the season. All that helps to create a rich tapestry of learning and exploration for children

JVL SSPA's remarkable faculty — gifted and creative master teachers and musicians dedicated to the fine art of teaching, supports all of this musical activity.

At the core of the program lies a commitment to strengthening the musicality of each student and awakening his or her musical responsiveness. Individual spirit and artistry are nourished, and ensemble and performance provide valuable social and artistic experiences and forces enthusiasm and perseverance.

The JVL SSPA Music Program is being held at the Canadore College in beautiful and picturesque North Bay on Lake Nipissing, approximately 3.5 hours drive from Toronto and offers the opportunity to take part in intensive musical training in a comfortable and stimulating atmosphere. It also provides the opportunity for parents who wishes to accompany their children (under the age of ten mandatory) to have very relaxing holidays and at the same time to observe and participate in various activities
