Why come?
Clarinetists don't often get this many of the best players and teachers in one place, in one day. You'll learn from working professionals, hear great playing up close, and meet other players who share your passion. Whatever your level, there's something here to take back to your practice room.
Play in the choir, observe a masterclass, or simply soak up a day of clarinet, then stay for the concert.
