Do join us for our 30th Anniversary Year. Since 1982 people have come from all over the world to enjoy our classical music vacations with like minded people. Come to listen or to play. Come alone, as a couple or with a group of friends. While string players are in the majority, we welcome wind players and pianists. Pre-formed quartets or individuals all welcome. Players have ample opportunities for rehearsing and being coached, while listeners absorb the musical atmosphere and gain a greater understanding of music. A unique feature of these Holiday Festivals is that the coaches, members of world famous chamber music ensembles, play with the groups they are coaching. Outstanding concerts and operas in superb venues; Accommodation is in luxury or four star centrally located hotels with gourmet meals in a sociable, informal atmosphere; Extensive sightseeing with visits to places of musical interest; Scheduled chamber music playing with coaching by world famous musicians; all make Chamber Music Holidays a unique experience.
We plan to celebrate our 30th Birthday with special parties in St Goar on the Rhine and in Florence.
We thoroughly enjoyed the first Aron Quartet Festival in the wonderful Schloss Laudon and we look forward to the next Festival in August 2012. This most beautiful moated castle in Vienna, on the edge of the Vienna Woods, offers the perfect setting for an atmospheric chamber music festival with five concerts by this world famous quartet and friends.
Since Istanbul was mentioned as a possible venue several people have expressed interest. We shall visit to finalise details in February.
