This viola course is set in the most beautiful surroundings in North Cornwall at Lavethan, a 17th Manor House with rolling lawns, a purpose built concert hall and incredible facilities tailor-made for musicians. Daily viola lessons, performance classes, ensemble sessions, discussions, concerts, time to work with a pianist, technique sessions alongside wonderful homemade food and comfortable accommodation are what you can expect. Lavethan is a short walk from the village of Blisland which has a beautiful church, pub and a fantastically stocked local shop! Magical is the word.

"I had the most wonderful time on the course! It provided me with the opportunity to focus deeply on my practice without any external distractions. It also inspired me to continue challenging myself, as I was surrounded by so many amazing violists. The location itself was beautiful and peaceful providing a nice change from the busy city life."

“The Aronowitz Viola Course was an exceptional and transformative experience. It deepened my understanding not only of the viola and music, but also of myself as an artist. For anyone seeking a space to disconnect from the outside world and fully immerse themselves in focused, inspiring viola study, this course offers the perfect environment”

Rory Africa | Postgraduate RNCM Viola Student

"Throughout the course, I learnt much about giving and receiving constructive peer review on various levels and I was also exposed to many new pieces of repertoire that might just be viola 'gems'. Chamber music for violas only felt like submerging oneself in the joys of your passion, and I gained more insight on various techniques and ways of expression as I conversed with the other students of the course. Overall, I very much enjoyed the past week as academics became less of a focus and I had the space and environment to truly feel an intimate kind of music which came directly from the heart and soul."

Shan Ga Mak | Yehudi Menuhin School 

"I really enjoyed the atmosphere, it was very organised with fantastic lessons and lots and lots of opportunities to perform in concerts and classes. There was an amazing accompanist available for us on a daily basis."

Victoria Stolte | Yehudi Menuhin School
