We're coming to you from Los Angeles, California this week for The Colburn School's Sounding Point Academy Performance Series.

Founded by Colburn faculty members, Robert Lipsett and Fabiola Kim, Sounding Point Academy is a two-week in-person program that covers all facets of violin playing — including masterclasses with world-leading artists, orchestra excerpt coaching, and more.

Read our interview with Mr. Lipsett and Ms. Kim, here.

This year's faculty members will include Robert Lipsett, Fabiola Kim, Danielle Belen, Eugene Watanabe, and Simon James.

Guest artist appearances will be made by Endre Granat, Nathan Cole, VC Artist William Hagen, and Debbie Devine.
