SOLI Education
SOLI Chamber Ensemble offers engaging programs for musicians of all ages. Adult pianists enjoy musical collaboration in relaxed Monday Salons, while SOLI Saturdays give pre-college students the chance to explore solo pieces with professional players. I SOLO’d with SOLI pairs young pianists with SOLI members David Mollenauer and Stephanie Key for workshops, a contest, and a citywide tour. This year ISWS is a collaboration with CASA (Composers Alliance of San Antonio). Teachers can grow their studios through the hybrid Enseña Certification Program, and adult musicians connect at the SOLI/ACMP Play-In chamber music nights. Sound Sense workshops offer fun, no-pressure musical exploration for students, families, and curious minds.
