Students will be seated in one of these camps:
Chamber Music Camp
Chamber Music Camp is for students of advanced ability. Our expectation is to seat three string quartets. These select chamber ensembles will each be coached by a School of Music string faculty member. Faculty include Jenny Gregoire (violin), Jacob Adams (viola), and Moises Molina (cello). Chamber Music Camp format also includes instrument-specific masterclasses and a culminating concert. Although our two summer string camps operate during the same week, Chamber Music Camp students do not play in Orchestra. An add-on private lesson is available subject to faculty schedule. Cost is $230. Limited scholarship funding is available by application.
Orchestra Camp

Orchestra Camp is for students of intermediate to advanced ability. Camp structure includes instrument-specific technique classes, sectionals, orchestra rehearsals and a School of Music string faculty member masterclass. Orchestra Camp concludes with a concert. Cost is $230. Limited scholarship funding is available by application.
