After an exciting fifth iteration of the Mountainside Baroque Summer Academy, and its outstanding concluding student concert (sample below), MBQ looks forward its sixth Summer Academy for middle school, high school and early college students. Students enjoy individualized and group instruction from esteemed national performers, and engage Baroque music as it is brought to life in the 21st century. 

Along with superb technical instruction, you’ll encounter an imaginative approach to music theory and fundamentals and the essence of Baroque dance, art, and history. You’ll also play historical music and enjoy evening social activities. Two-time U.S. National Scottish Fiddle Champion, Sarah Lynn, will again lead a class on Scottish fiddling style.
