Class Descriptions
Orchestra/Band/Theater/Choral
Students select a major in either Orchestra, Band,
Theater/Choral and perform a wide variety of band, orchestra, choral and
Broadway repertoire. There are junior and senior Band and Orchestras and junior
and senior Choirs, in which students are placed according to age and ability.
Theater majors are to plan to come to pre-camp July 21–23
for role auditions (at director’s house) There is a camp concert on Sunday,
August 1 at 10:30am for all performing groups and a theater performance on
Friday evening, July 30—time TBA. Both performances will take place at the
Park-McCullough House.
Chamber Music
Musicians are grouped according to ability in small groups
of two, three and four and prepare chamber repertoire to be performed. This is
a wonderful and relaxed atmosphere, in which musicians learn performing and
stage-presence techniques. Rewarding and fun!
Secondary Instrument
Many of our musicians play more than one instrument. If they
so wish, students may take a class focusing on their secondary instrument or
choral choice.
Electives
Musicians may choose from: Jazz Band, Chorus, Handbells, Music Enrichment, Advanced String Ensemble, Percussion Ensemble.
Lunch
Campers bring their own lunch. Snacks and drinks may
be purchased at the camp store
