Liverpool String Academy (LSA)
The Liverpool String Academy (LSA) brings social, cultural and educational opportunities to young string players on Merseyside across the socio-economic spectrum via a highly disciplined training in Early Music, with a view to enhancing their musical and personal development.
The Liverpool String Academy offers young violin, viola, cello and double-bass players specialist education in string playing with particular emphasis on historically informed performance and ensemble music (focusing on the music of the ‘long eighteenth century’, from Corelli to Schubert) under the guidance of our passionate tutors.
To become Early Music specialists in their own right, LSA students have to apply themselves over a prolonged period to develop new techniques of bowing and fingering as well as a distinct musical sensibility more suited to the specific repertoires that are the object of their studies. Most importantly, at the heart of our community is a love for making music and the commitment of empowering the next generation of young musicians!
