We are looking for two violin, one viola and one cello player to form a string quartet and take part in a career-developing fellowship programme, facilitated and mentored by the New Zealand String Quartet (NZSQ), Chamber Music New Zealand (CMNZ) and the Adam Chamber Music Festival (ACMF). Over the course of the fellowship programme, you will develop and hone your performance, creative, collaborative and business skills and set yourself up for a successful, sustainable and well-rounded career in the arts.

The annual Adam Summer School for Chamber Music is an opportunity for up to 30 talented young string players and pianists to commit themselves to ten days of intense chamber music-making. Surrounded by their peers and in the idyllic setting of Nelson in summertime, students attend coaching sessions and masterclasses by the New Zealand String Quartet and, in 2025, renowned New Zealand pianist Rae De Lisle. This is an opportunity for young classical musicians to connect with each other and to learn from and be inspired by professional musicians.
