Summer 2024 Dates: July 29 – August 2
Are you ready for Summer Strings Camp?
Strings Camp is a fabulous way to keep your music skills sharp and growing over the summer. It’s a fun way to spend time with your orchestra peers and meet new friends! If you’re new to the Philharmonic Orchestra or planning to audition, this is a great way to become involved so that you feel that sense of belonging from day 1 when orchestra rehearsals begin in the fall.
Strings camp dates for Summer 2024 will be July 29 – August 2
What can you expect from Summer Strings Camp?
- Take a musical tour of the world!
- Get individualized attention in a small group setting while still gaining experience playing with an ensemble
- Tailor the experience by choosing from one of two tracks: beginner and intermediate (if you’re in the Philharmonic Orchestra, then the intermediate track is right for you!).
- Learn Challenging New Music
- Earn your conductor’s baton by attending a conducting class to help you learn more about expression, group playing, and musicality
- Grow in rhythm skills through a percussion class
- Impress your parents with an end-of-camp concert in the beautiful Great Hall at the Kemp Center for the Arts (you know they want to take pictures and video)
- Special workshops throughout the week on many subjects about music and being a musician!
