BISQC Youth Quartet Performances
Launched in 2010, the Young Musicians Program was originally created through a partnership between the Rolston and the Székely families as an initiative to inspire and celebrate the next generation of great chamber musicians. Under the leadership of Artistic Advisor Ronelle Schaufele, this program creates a special, welcoming, and affirming experience for young quartets as part of the Banff International String Quartet Competition.
This year, we welcome:
- Freude Quartet from The Phil and Eli Taylor Peformance Academy for Young Artists at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto
- Cedar Quartet from the Vancouver Academy of Music
- Arnica Quartet from Banff, Alberta
These promising young musicians will attend BISQC lectures and concerts, receieve coaching from some of the leading musicians of our time, and will be heard in select performances in the community through our outreach program. Banff Centre is thrilled to support the next generation of chamber musicians through this wonderful initiative.
