Music Camps
Why attend a Summer Music Camp?
• Rising seniors: summer music camps and programs offer excellent and timely preparation for pre-screens and auditions.
• School isn’t in the way of diving deeply into your whatever area of music you’re passionate about.
• You get to have fun AND pursue what you love, at the same time.
• You’ll meet students from other high schools, other states, other countries. You may also meet some of the people who will be auditioning for the same spots at the same schools as you. This will help you better understand the competition that’s out there –– and what you can do to meet it.
• You can explore areas of music that are new to you, that your high school doesn’t offer, or that you haven’t had time to investigate.
• Extraordinary musicians and faculty from all over the world will work with you in groups and 1:1. This will help take your music to the next level.
• You may end up changing your mind about focusing on music in college as a result of attending a summer music camp. That’s actually incredibly valuable. As Chris Hintz atInterlochen Arts Academy and Interlochen Arts Camp says, “It’s a great test for an aspiring musician: if you can make music, work hard all day long, and still have the time of your life, it’s a great sign you’re on the right path in pursuing a career in music.”
