17th Annual
This weeklong camp welcomes 9-12 graders, offering a comprehensive focus on enhancing instrument-specific fundamentals and performance skills. Participants will partake in large and chamber ensembles, featuring both same and mixed instrumentation. Students will engage in daily warm-up and fundamental sessions as well as enriching master classes, providing valuable insights and techniques.
