or wanting intensive cello study. Students receive a great deal of personal
attention, the focus being cellistic development, musicianship, creative practice
techniques, a natural physical approach, and respectful working relationships.
Participants live simply within a supportive family environment and work very
hard, spurred on by their rapid progress. Housed by the beautiful historic Colgate
