At Mississauga Fine Arts Academy, we believe music is even more meaningful when students have the opportunity to learn, collaborate, and perform together. This summer, we are excited to continue growing our ensemble programs and invite students to join either our established Chamber Strings Group or our newly launched Spotlight Singers program.
MFAA Chamber Strings
Our Chamber Strings program has been a core part of MFAA for several years and continues to grow in both quality and reputation. Designed for violin, viola, and cello students with prior playing experience, the program gives students the opportunity to move beyond solo lessons and experience the excitement of ensemble performance.
Students work on:
• Ensemble skills and musical listening
• Confidence performing with others
• Stronger rhythm, timing, and musical expression
• A deeper understanding of orchestral repertoire
Students in the Chamber Strings Group also enjoy exciting performance opportunities throughout the year, including:
• Semi-annual recitals at the Living Arts Centre
• MFAA Faculty Concert performances alongside our teachers
• Community events and festivals such as the Golden Kids Festival
Many of our alumni have gone on to join respected ensembles, including the Mississauga Symphony Orchestra and other orchestral groups across the GTA.
MFAA Spotlight Singers
Launched this May, Spotlight Singers is our newest ensemble program for students who love singing and would like to experience performing as part of a group. While private lessons focus on individual development, Spotlight Singers gives students the opportunity to sing together, explore vocal harmony, and build confidence in a supportive and encouraging environment.
The program incorporates elements of:
• Vocal harmony
• Ensemble listening and blending
• Stage presence and expression
• Musical theatre-style performance
No previous ensemble experience is required, and students do not need to be current vocal students to join. The program is open to any student interested in group singing and performance.
We are also excited to have Ms. Emily leading Spotlight Singers. With her background in vocal ensembles and musical theatre, she brings both performance experience and a passion for creating a positive and uplifting environment for students.
Why Join an Ensemble Program?
Both Chamber Strings and Spotlight Singers offer students the opportunity to:
• Build confidence and teamwork skills
• Make friends with students who share similar interests
• Stay motivated and engaged through music
• Gain valuable performance experience
• Experience the joy of making music together
