Lewis, NY
Meadowmount School of Music |
Founded in 1944 by the legendary Ivan Galamian,
this unique school was created to give his violin students a place to practice
and perform, free of the distractions of city living, in a quiet, rural
setting. Since 1954, Meadowmount has been under the aegis of the Society
for Strings, Inc. In addition to violin, instructors have been added to
provide lessons in cello, chamber music, piano and viola.
Meadowmount is a 7 week summer school for these accomplished
young people to train for professional careers in music. Students range in age
from 8 to 30 and come from all parts of the United States and the world to
this quiet mountain setting for rigorous practice and coaching on their
instruments. Performance opportunities are given at concerts twice a week.
These concerts are open to the public.
