Collingwood College
Durham University again plays host to the Maggini String
Quartet Summer School in 2012. We moved to Durham in 2010 after nearly
a quarter of a century in Harrogate and were overwhelmed by the quality
of the welcome we received.
Settling in a new venue can be tricky but the University staff did
absolutely everything posssible to make our course work in 2010 and
2011, and work well!
For 2012 we have managed to secure the best facilities yet. At
Collingwood we can look forward to all our work areas and accommodation
being under one roof. There are even lifts between floors to take the
strain of lugging music and equipment (and ourselves) about.
Update: January 2012
This year's course is proving very popular and is already very well
subscribed. We are delighted to be welcoming some new participants from
outside the UK. If you too are considering attending this year you
might want to keep in mind that the 2012 Olympic Games are being held
in London from 27th July to the 12th August. Flights are likely to be
in high demand with discounted fares unlikely unless you book very
early. Please do not delay. Get in touch early if you are considering
one of the few remaining places on our 2012 course.
