Your event registration fee is fully refundable if cancelled within four weeks of the event. (This takes a lot of planning, and late drop-outs require considerable rework). Simply reply to your registration confirmation e-mail to request a refund.
If you have suggestions for repertoire, please e-mail IMSLP links for the music to [email protected] Bring hardcopy (all individual parts) as well for spontaneous open sessions. Bring a music stand also.
SPECIAL NOTE TO PIANISTS: Please RSVP early, space runs out fast, and SUGGEST repertoire (trios through quintets). We specifically program pianist’s requests because we understand the extra lead time on preparation!
