Brass and Percussion Camp
This 17th Annual weeklong camp welcomes 9-12 graders, offering a comprehensive focus on enhancing instrument-specific fundamentals and performance skills. Participants will partake in large and chamber ensembles featuring both same and mixed instrumentation. Students will engage in daily warm-up and fundamental sessions and enrich master classes, providing valuable insights and techniques.
No auditions are required to register for the Brass and Percussion Camp. Closer to the camp dates, details will be provided for video auditions to determine ensemble placement. However, all students are accepted to the camp while space is available.
On Campus tuition: $650 | Dates: July 7-12, 2025
