2013 AHS Summer Institute, Colburn School

The 2013 AHS (National) Institute and Competition will be held June 16-19 at the prestigious Colburn School in the heart of downtown Los Angeles, across the street from the world famous Disney Hall. With state of the art rehearsal and performance spaces, dormitory accommodations, and in-house cafeteria and catering, Colburn is ideal for the Competition, Institute, and Lyon & Healy awards.

"Focus on Friends" in 2013 features the finest in chamber music and pop and jazz small ensembles. Coaching, workshops, and master classes with world class artists such as Heidi Lehwalder, Elizabeth Hainen, AnneMarie Liss, Carol Robbins, Paul Baker, Delaine Leonard Fedson, and Leslie Stratton Norris are just the beginning. Los Angeles premieres and world premieres of new works will open our ears to new repertoire possibilities for students and professionals, performed in Colburn School’s incomparable Zipper Hall, home of the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra. Master classes including instrumental clinicians who play instruments other than the harp will increase our awareness of the possibilities and needs of our fellow musicians, enabling us to become better listeners and performers.

At the 2013 AHS Summer Institute, fine music, great weather, and terrific food with good friends merge to create an unforgettable experience. Join us!

(P.S. the Competition auditions are open to the public! See Schedule.)
