Thank you for your interest in our 2010 UNT Violin and Piano Summer Workshop! This workshop is a great opportunity for talented, young musicians (beginner to advanced) to come and work with the best piano and violin faculty and enjoy using the facilities that the UNT College of Music has to offer. The UNT College of Music piano and violin faculty will be offering everyday lessons, two piano masterclasses, two violin masterclasses, and a UNT student/ alumni concert. This workshop is for every age group and every level! For the intermediate/ advanced students we offer the great all-inclusive $350 package of 4 lessons with faculty, two masterclasses, and a concert. For our younger and beginner students we offer the much smaller package of $55 and that will include everything except the lessons. This is a great motivational and inspirational workshop for every level! Included in this email is our flyer and the two registration forms to the workshop. Once the student sends their application, their workshop schedule and map will be sent to them. The registration deadline is June 1, 2010 however, it is better to register early to reserve a spot. Please read the registration form carefully and send the checks payable to "Seung Eun Chung" to the address below.

(For advanced students: There are still spots open for the piano and violin masterclasses but if you want your student to perform in the masterclass, you will need to send a tape of them playing. Please send your tape WITH the student's registration form included, to the address below):
