“Chamber Chats” Presentation / Demonstration
Side-by-side
Sectional and Individual Coaching
Impactful learning is especially effective in one-on-one arrangements. Sometimes a band or orchestra director would like individual artists of the chamber ensemble to help specific instrumental sections work on the music the class is preparing. One-on-one coachings are also offered in cases where a student may need a little extra assistance, or where a student could benefit from more advanced tutoring.

THE PĀKA‘A PROJECT
Chamber Music Hawai‘i’s The Pākaʻa Project increases access to music education resources for teachers in both ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi and English-speaking communities statewide.
At the heart of the Pākaʻa Project lies the classic Hawaiian coming-of-age story of the young boy, Pākaʻa, retold in Hawaiian language newspapers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and set to music by composer Jon Magnussen for the CMH’s Spring Wind Quintet and Hawaiian-language narrators Sam ʻOhu Gon III and B.K. Cabigon.

DIGITAL EDUCATION MODULES
Through these free-to-use modules, we hope to inspire youth to find their own voices through music and discover how to adapt it to their everyday lives. These pre-recorded videos will focus on introducing students to the instruments, their history, and how chamber music has evolved and affected the lives of our musicians. These videos are not intended to replace in-person instruction, but to add another layer and go deeper into what music means to us and to share our personal experiences.
