Etudes, anyone?
It’s time for a little exercise!
The Kindler Cello Society
of Washington, DC presents
Cello Day
Saturday, March 27, 2010, 9:00 am to 4:30 pm (registration begins at 8:30)
H-B Woodlawn Secondary Program (directions)
4100 Vacation Lane, Arlington, VA 22207
(just 10 minutes from the Kennedy Center with ample parking)
Cello Day will focus on etudes and exercises, how they relate to music, how to use them creatively and effectively, and how to get the most out of practicing. Washington-area cellists, Bob Battey, Vasily Popov, and Glenn Garlick will give workshop-style presentations. German cellist, Daniel Müller-Schott, in town to perform the Dvorak Concerto with the National Symphony Orchestra, will make a special appearance. The day will culminate with a mass play-in. Bring a lunch, or eat at one of the many near-by eateries. Download the flyer. Music downloads here.
