Meeting each morning from 9:00am-12:00pm, Summer String Camp offers personalized attention to each student, as well as the exciting experience of playing in an ensemble with friends. Students will learn new games and songs, building strong friendships while improving reading and technical ability on their instrument.

Each day will begin with a short Masterclass-style group lesson and end with Orchestra-style reading instruction.
