Franklin Pond Chamber Music

Franklin Pond Chamber Music Franklin Pond Chamber Music is a unique chamber-music program for talented pre-college musicians.

Created as an opportunity for serious students to interact personally with highly qualified professionals, the program offers coaching with faculty members, masterclasses with guest artists, and special classes.. The Summer program runs for 4 weeks in July and the Fall Into Spring program runs from October until May. Students prepare for a final concert, as well as presenting informal and outreach

performances. Our goal is to develop the artistic and interpretive talents of our students, as well as to strengthen their communication skills as developing musicians.

May is always such a wonderful time for Franklin Pond! 🌸🎻 We are still beaming from our Fall Into Spring Finale Concert earlier this month.

Our students took the stage and delivered breathtaking performances. Watching their growth, teamwork, and artistry culminate in this finale was incredibly moving, and a true testament to their hard work all season long.

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our wonderful faculty and coaches for their tireless mentorship, to the parents for their endless support, and to our amazing community for filling the room with so much warmth and applause.

Cheers to our students on a spectacular concert! πŸŽΆπŸ‘

The Dolce Vita Quartet played beautifully at the Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra concert last weekend (Sunday, May 10). Symphony Hallβ€”full of parents, students, and supportersβ€”was amazingly quiet throughout their performance of the first movement of Haydn’s famous β€œSunrise” string quartet.

Many thanks to the ASYO and music director, William Langley for giving them this opportunity.
