CLOSED - Middle School Orchestra Camp

Keep the Music Going

Each day of Middle School Orchestra Camp consists of Master Classes and String Orchestra experiences, ending with a Concert for the entire family! 

Master Classes . . .

A Master Class is like a one-on-one private lesson but with many students and one teacher. Learn about YOUR instrument from a Master.

String Orchestra . . .

Perform in a String Orchestra like no other. The String Orchestra is formed of all of the camp members and will rehearse music to perform at the end of the week.

Master Class Teachers

The Master Class Teachers are Orchestra Directors and Private Instructors from the area and are all specialists on their instruments. Let’s face it! Orchestra Directors all know how to play all of the instruments because they learn that in college. But, they also learn to play ONE instrument really, really well. So each Master Class Teacher will be teaching the instrument they know really, really well and can teach you things that only a specialist on that instrument knows.

It’s a chance to learn many special things about your instrument from a Master.

String Orchestra

The String Orchestra will rehearse music you’ve never performed before. You will have players beside you that you’ve never met but everyone has something great to offer to the group. By the end of the week, those pieces of music will be polished and ready to amaze not only your Moms and Dads but you too! Then, you can take all that you learned at Middle School Orchestra Camp back to your Orchestra in the Fall and show your friends. Not only are you a better player, but you are helping everyone else be a better player, which helps your Orchestra be a better Orchestra!
