Andrew CookWelcome to the Gold Coast Chamber Music Festival’s official website.

It has always been my dream to create a place where young musicians can come and work with great artists in a setting that is enjoyable, informative and inspiring. My hope is that students will come away from the festival with a greater love and understanding of chamber music, increased proficiency in creating that genre of music and a renewed sense of purpose in their own endeavors as musicians.

Our mission is to provide students with performance opportunities, intensive musical instruction, opportunities for collaboration with students and professionals, and the opportunity to experience the satisfaction of achieving higher musical goals than they probably thought possible. Our students tell us they are awed by the achievements they have made during a single week of focused practice, rehearsal, and performance. Students love meeting the challenges that start on the first day of the festival. and culminate in their performances.

By taking their music to the public at our concerts, students in turn share this wonderful music form with the community at large. We hope our students leave us each year with confidence, satisfaction in their accomplishments and increased eagerness to share their experiences.
