The clarinet fellow performs with the Eastern Festival Orchestra for all rehearsals and concerts during the five weeks of the Eastern Festival of Music. The fellow may be asked to play E-flat clarinet and bass clarinet, as well as B-flat and A clarinet. In this program, you’ll collaborate with exceptional musicians and will be guided by our renowned artist-faculty. Fellows will perform with the Eastern Festival Orchestra, perform chamber music with artist-faculty, and participate in the Repertory Orchestra, where conducting scholars lead the ensemble through festival repertoire under the guidance of the Festival’s music director and resident conductors.
