PPSI 2026 Advanced Student Program
July 11-17, 2026
Our instrument-specific Advanced Instrumental Programs are combined with our Advanced Chamber Program to bring you the best of PPSI Advanced Programming in ONE amazing program!
PPSI 2026 ADVANCED STUDENT PROGRAM is a full-day experience for serious middle school and high school (or by teacher recommendation) instrumentalists who are studying repertoire in the later Suzuki books as well as for those who are studying the standard repertoire beyond the Suzuki literature.
*No audition is required to participate.*
Our advanced program is open to violinists (book 6 and up), violists (book 5 and up), cellists (book 5 and up), flutists (book 7 and up), and pianists (book 6 and up) whether participating in a Suzuki program or not, or by teacher recommendation if a student does not fall in the recommended levels/ages.
Students in the Advanced Program will gather together on July 11-12 to work exclusively with the Bayberry Quartet to focus on chamber music skills. During these two days, students will get to know each other, rehearse and attend group coachings with their individual chamber group, and gather together in large group discussions and chamber master classes. Chamber Music study with the Bayberry Quartet will then continue July 13-17 alongside further programming on their individual instrument that includes technique, repertoire, enrichment, and master classes.
