Concert Band Camps (Beginner to Advanced) These concert band camps provide exciting opportunities for all students, from the young instrumentalist to the advanced player. Daily group lessons on all wind and percussion instruments are complemented by full band rehearsals. Several levels of concert bands ensure each student receives a challenging and rewarding experience. Students will also have opportunity to play in small chamber groups or a drumming ensemble. The week concludes with a final concert on Saturday afternoon that is open to family, friends and the public.

The curriculum includes: combo, jazz history and listening, jazz theory (basic to advanced), master class instruction on bass, drums, guitar, piano, saxophone, trombone, trumpet and voice, faculty concerts (each evening), student concerts and student jam sessions. We also encourage educators interested in expanding their own jazz pedagogy skills to contact us to audit the workshop.
