This intensive music camp offers instruction in violin, viola, cello and string bass in an encouraging group environment, with skilled instructors. Daily class sessions will include orchestra, chamber ensembles, fiddle ensemble and instrument-specific technique classes as well as training in aural skills and music theory, and fun activities such as Orff instruments. The camp period includes a 30-minute daily lunch break (bring your own sack lunch), and 1:00-2:00pm masterclass or student/faculty recital each day, which parents are encouraged to attend. The week will conclude with an all-camp concert on Friday. Students will be separated into groups by level, and beginner through advanced students are welcome. Beginner students may try a string instrument, and receive recommendations from our experienced faculty for group placement in the Fall. Intermediate & advanced students will benefit from the opportunity to learn from different teachers, meet new friends, and collaborate with their peers on more challenging literature. -Instruments are not provided.
