Brass Camp
COVID-19 Summer Camp Update
After carefully discussing the variables with university leadership, we’ve decided to make the difficult decision to cancel on-campus workshops this summer.
Our camp directors are now considering the best options for virtually connecting with our camp community, and we will share those opportunities on our websites as those plans are finalized.
For university announcements related to COVID-19, please visit our Coronavirus Communications website.
June 22-27, 2020
This week-long workshop is open to rising 9th through 12th graders and will focus on the fundamentals of brass performance and practice. 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 master classes.
Nightly recitals will feature performances by Stetson Brass Camp faculty and staff, as well as selected workshop participants and chamber groups.
The final workshop concert will feature all students in large ensemble performances.
Documents and resources for the 2020 camp will be available at the end of spring. In the meantime, the 2019 camp documents will remain available for review.
