In July 2025, master pianist, teacher and composer, Emile Naoumoff, will direct and coach the Chamber Music Program with an emphasis on French repertoire. Guided by Emile Naoumoff, you will gain mastery of the French repertoire you seek to play as well as discover your inner ear. One of the last disciples of Nadia Boulanger, Emile Naoumoff brings to our program his breadth of knowledge and profound understanding of the musical world.
Dr. Philip Lasser and Mr. Emile Naoumoff’s teaching styles, steeped in the Nadia Boulanger tradition, nurture an intellectual curiosity and inspire thoughtful analyses. These skills are vital to becoming a sensitive and compelling performer, teacher, and leader in the artistic community.
