"The faculty and facilities at Chautauqua lead to a very productive and enlightening summer and I would love to come back again."
Joshua Sawicki | USA
"Chautauqua is a magic place-- a combination of natural beauty, fascinating architecture, incredible safety, multiple and varied intellectual, scientific, spiritual and artistic activities.
All together this creates an ideal environment for growth, excitement and reflection. In the musical field, the level is just amazing. The concerts I heard this summer were of the highest level. What I enjoyed most was my collaboration with the Piano Department.
Talented students come from all over the world. They are friendly, curious, eager to learn, to improve and understand, and to get answers to all their questions. Colleagues are friendly, supportive and helpful.
All the activities such as teaching, rehearsals, discussions, masterclasses, and performances are scheduled in an intense but comfortable way. Each day is exciting and delightful!
Congratulations for an outstanding realization. I feel honored and thankful to have been invited to participate in the Festiva"
Monique Duphil, 2011 Guest Artist, Oberlin College Conservatory
