What is Ensemble Room NYC?
A series of weekly extracurricular small group music classes for upper elementary, middle, and high school students offered in Manhattan. Ensemble Room NYC has three sessions per academic year, and summer offerings as well. Academic year session last approximately 3 months, and conclude with a performance open to families, friends, and the public!Â
Why small ensembles?
Participation in small ensembles, aka "chamber music" or "combos", offers the unique opportunity for students to establish musical independence, develop artistic leadership, and build collaborative decision-making skills and confidence. In small groups, students have the opportunity to have their voices heard, be truly creative, and discover their unique artistic voice. Due to logistical constraints in schools, many music students do not have the opportunity to participate in small ensembles until studying music in college. Ensemble Room NYC offers the opportunity for students ages 8-18 to participate in small ensembles early on in their musical upbringing!
Who can join?
Instrumentalists ages 8-18 with at least one year of experience on their instrument. We value unique instrumentation in our ensembles, so we welcome all sorts of instruments. Most ensembles perform music arranged specifically for its members by Leanne, or, students in the groups compose some of their own music.
