Join us for an inspiring and immersive day dedicated to adult cellists! Led by ANMS Faculty Kelly Knox and Sara Wilkins, this two-day retreat is packed with collaborative music-making, skill-building workshops, and opportunities for connection and fun.

The schedule features a mix of large ensemble playing and small chamber groups (duos, trios, and quartets), giving you the chance to explore both the power and beauty of cello music. Hone your skills with targeted workshops on sight-reading techniques and rehearsal strategies, and get your rhythm sharpened through fun and interactive rhythm games.

Take the stage in our supportive setting during the solo performance opportunity—a chance to share your music and gain performance experience. Lunch is provided each day’s session will include a dedicated time for Q&A’s where you can ask anything about cello technique, gear, repertoire, practice routines, and more.
