Dates for 2023: Cancelled
Welcome to the Winchester Summer Music Course website.
If you are looking for an opportunity to play chamber music, small group or large,
strings, wind or mixed, you have come to the right place.
We are disappointed that the 2023 course has not attracted enough players and therefore will not take place this year.
Winchester Summer Music offers an outstanding opportunity for amateur players of strings, woodwind, horn and piano to enjoy chamber music with expert coaching in a uniquely friendly and encouraging environment, together with opportunities for orchestral and concerto playing.
The course has a particularly welcoming and happy atmosphere; many participants return each year to make music, to meet old friends, and make new ones, and to enjoy a week spent in and around the glorious city of Winchester. The course regularly attracts about 50 musicians of different instruments, standards, ages and backgrounds with a love of music in common.
Although most players return each year, first timers are always welcome in all instrumental sections. There were fewer than 50 applications this year which does not allow for a viable course. The closing date for appplications was April 28th.
Alternatively please contact the secretary to be added to our mailing list for future years.
