By clicking on the link aboe, you can read the brochures for the June 16-22, 2024 Cincinnati Band and Strings Camp and the August 26-28, 2024 Lakeside Chautauqua, Ohio Band Camp. We know that the Lakeside Chautauqua location is an easy drive, and the Cincinnati camp would only be a 4-hour drive from home.
The Cincinnati Music Camp is 5 days long and is for concert band and string instruments. It has large and small concert bands and string group ensembles and is for intermediate and advanced players. Registration is now open.
The Lakeside Chautauqua Band camp is 3 days long and is for the beginner-intermediate to advanced concert band player. If you have never been to a band camp, this would be a great one to go to. It is less than 4 hours away. Registration will open on April 10, 2024.
The instructors and programming for both camps will be fantastic. All instructors have extensive experience in adult music education. You will really enjoy these camps.
