Young Musicians Series

The Young Musicians Series puts together top young musicians with a professional musician.  These concerts give outstanding young musicians a deserved chance to play in public while receiving enthusiastic mentorship from a seasoned pro.

While Beethoven's struggles to overcome deafness and personal disappontments have become legend, Smetana's struggles - though lesser known - were every bit as heroic, if not more so. In addition to complete deafness he endured the tragic deaths of his daughter and first wife. With both men, their struggles seeped inexorably into their music, shaping them into profound testimonials of the human spirit. In the first Razumovsky quartet, Beethoven's quest for individual freedom completely shatters the classical constraints of Haydn and Mozart, while Smetana therapeutically pours out his soul in the deeply personal "From my Life" quartet.<ul><li>Smetana String Quintet no 1 in E minor “From my Life”</li><li>Beethoven String Quintet op 59 no 1 “Razumovsky”</li></ul>The Young Musicians Series The Cambridge Camerata Academy is committed to giving the future musicians of tomorrow public performance opportunities today.
