Students receive instruction specific to their instrument as well as in the group setting of a band. They learn basic music theory, improve their practice skills, instrumental skills, and have fun in the process. This camp is a great way to prepare for the coming year for anyone who would be interested in joining Chapel Team OR the Contemporary Band elective. Students are grouped according to their ability level and will be challenged to grow in their musical abilities in an ensemble setting. Students MUST have some experience on their instrument. If they are a beginner they should consider lessons or group classes instead. Instructor permission or audition is REQUIRED in order to participate in this camp.
