Mountain Collegium, an informal yet intensive workshop, offers study of Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque music, focusing on recorder, viol, and other early instruments as well as voice. Featured classes include technique, improvisation, and a variety of consorts and repertoire. Students may also choose classes in folk, Appalachian, Celtic, Sephardic, and contemporary music. Small classes and easy access to faculty create a friendly and relaxed learning experience.

In 2011 the workshop will begin with check-in on Sunday afternoon, July 3. After dinner, an evening orientation leads to a large playing session, followed by an ice cream social. Classes begin on Monday morning and run through Friday afternoon. Checkout is on Saturday after breakfast.

Mountain Collegium presented its 2010 annual faculty concert,
Thursday, July 1st, 2010 at 7:30 PM,
in the WCU Coulter Building on the campus of WCU. 
The concert was dedicated to the memory of longtime friend and faculty member Gerald Moore.

A detailed brochure will be available in March 2011 or before.
