Regional Summer Workshops

Summer study can be a very important part of a young person’s education. It is a time to meet other serious music students, experience a different teaching environment and feel the joy and independence of learning without the constant supervision of a parent. (Sometimes, this is a relief for all.) There are many wonderful opportunities for study around the country when students are old enough, advanced enough and mature enough to leave home for one to eight weeks.

Summer music camps usually emphasize one aspect of music study. You can choose practice camps, chamber music camps, orchestra camps or combinations of all.
