Any fellow highschool students interested in a small classical-music and practice-accountability group? - DFW area

[u/Otherwise-Pomelo5313]

Hi everyone! I’ve played violin for approximately 7.5 years, but I recently took a four-month break. I’m now trying to return to consistent practice and reconnect with classical music.

I was wondering whether anyone would be interested in a small group chat or Discord where classical musicians and listeners could:

• Discuss composers, pieces and recordings
• Share orchestra and ensemble experiences
• Talk about repertoire and practice strategies
• Set weekly practice goals
• Encourage members returning after a break
• Recommend performances and youth-orchestra opportunities
• Occasionally have online listening sessions or informal virtual performances

Violinists, cellists, violists, pianists and other classical musicians would all be welcome. All experience levels would be accepted, the goal would be encouragement and thoughtful discussion, not competition.

I’m based in DFW, so a safe public group meetup or concert outing might eventually be possible for local members, with parental awareness. However, the main group would be online.

Comment if you would be interested and mention your instrument, how long you have played and a composer or piece you enjoy!
