Start Right From the Very Beginning
Imagine arriving at camp on Sunday and you’ve never played a flute or French horn or tuba.
How do I put it together? How do I hold it? How do I make a sound?
Imagine getting first-class instruction from classroom teachers who specialize in beginners. Imagine walking into a group class with a professional musician who can help you learn more.
Imagine the feeling of working one-on-one or in groups of 3-4 with a university student who is learning to be a classroom music teacher!
Imagine how proud you will feel at the Camper Ensemble night when you play a whole piece for all your friends.
Imagine the look on your parents’ face at the concert on Saturday when you play the pieces you’ve learned—in JUST FIVE DAYS!
THAT’s the kind of magic we create in our Beginning Band programme. Don't read music? Not a problem. We'll teach you. Already read music? That's great, too.
Maggie Thompson and Craig Thompson head up the Beginning Band programme with the assistance of experienced Music Staff. Craig often arranges a piece of music just for this group.
