The Early Music Youth Academy, devoted to the joys of Renaissance consort music, meets for autumn and winter/spring semesters, with new performance projects each term.
SHAK also presents occasional short-term introductory or intermediate music workshops for instrumental music students.
Older, experienced instrumentalists also have the opportunity to serve by invitation as apprentice musicians in many of our theatrical and vocal projects.

- Players of plucked or bowed string instruments, or recorder
- You must play in tune and be able to read music
- Well-established students, usually already studying for at least 2-3 years (often more)
