From past Festival participants:

• Excellent planning on [the] entire festival! Getting musicians from the San Diego Symphony was a really good idea because it provided everyone that chance to see how a professional musician approaches music.
• Initially [the repertoire] seemed too hard, but that challenge really made us push ourselves to try to be the best we can be.
• I enjoyed [the festival] so much, the most intense week in my whole life! I learned so much about playing music and being a musician! I want to thank every coach for being so helpful and passionate!

     Welcome to the University of San Diego Fourth Annual Summer Chamber Music Festival. Co-sponsored by the USD Music Program and the University of the Third Age, the Festival is a week-long chamber music making and performing experience at the beautiful USD campus in San Diego, California. Each day, the Festival offers coaching sessions, free jamming/sight-reading sessions and time for individual practice. A public performance is given each afternoon, in addition to the opening faculty concert and a final concert at the end of the Festival (see Schedule).
