The purpose of Beginner Band Camp is to give beginner band students an introduction to band and help them learn how much fun music can be. Students will learn two-months-worth of music in just four days at the camp. Instruments at the camp include flute, clarinet, trumpet, french horn, trombones, baritones, and percussion. Summer Band camp is a great way to let your child get their “toe in the water” and provides the students a sense of comfort after a fantastic and positive start to the new world of Middle School.

The Junior High School Band Camp is a unique opportunity for young woodwind, brass, and percussion players to experience the band experience outside of their own school program. The camp is structured to improve individual performance skills, while allowing the campers to interact with other young musicians in music and socially. Outstanding band directors from around the country conduct the concert bands. This session provides an excellent opportunity for young musicians to improve their individual performance skills.

Held on the PT电子 campus, high school music campers will participate in rehearsals, sectionals, master classes, performances, and other choice classes, and perform in a culminating public concert. This is a unique and exciting opportunity for high school students to get a head start on the upcoming year by spending a week of intense music study. This camp offers one of the best student/teacher ratios and a staff consisting of the most talented and professional musicians in the country.

The PT电子 jazz camp takes jazz instruction to the next level by providing students the opportunity to play and perform in big bands as well as with small combos. Campers will take daily classes in jazz theory, jazz techniques, and jazz history, and will participate in evening jam sessions where they will get an opportunity to work on their improvisation skills while performing for and with other campers and faculty.

All of our camps at PT电子 in addition to the excellent and dedicated PT电子 faculty members who teach at the camps, you will be taught by some of the finest teachers and professional performers from across the country.
