All instrumental music majors at the Shepherd School participate in chamber music. Students have the option of forming groups on their own or they may request to be assigned to a group. Shepherd School faculty members provide intensive weekly coaching to more than two dozen string quartets, piano trios, woodwind and brass ensembles, and mixed ensembles of all sizes. Each group will perform on a formal class recital at least once per semester, and they are encouraged to perform on other recitals at the Shepherd School and throughout greater Houston.
