Open to instrumental music students grades 6 through 8 (including those entering 6th grade in the fall) the Middle School Band Camp offers a friendly and relaxed setting for musical growth through performance of large ensemble and chamber music. Note: Those students entering 9th grade in the fall will be considered for the High School Band Camp.
Most of the Festival Band program faculty are also professors at the university. Outstanding performers and teachers provide unique opportunities for learning, improving technical skills and expanding musicality. In addition to band rehearsals, chamber ensembles and jazz groups, students will attend daily electives, participate in master classes, attend special evening performances, and have time for individual practice and recreation.
