Brass Camp

July 8-13, 2024

The 17th Annual Brass Camp workshop is open to rising 9th through 12th graders and will focus on the fundamentals of brass performance and practice. Students are still eligible for one summer after their high school graduation. Students will gain experience playing in large and small ensembles in both matching and mixed instrumental combinations. Students will also participate in daily warm-up sessions and masterclasses. Nightly recitals will feature performances by Stetson Brass Camp faculty and staff, as well as selected workshop participants and chamber groups.
