The University of North Carolina at Greensboro is pleased to again announce plans for Summer Music Camp, the largest university
music camp in America! This summer we will offer two one-week camps, serving over 1,500 musicians, with programs in band, mixed
chorus, orchestra, and piano. Join us for a great musical experience!
Students at camp are under the leadership and guidance of the artist-faculty of the UNCG School of Music, long recognized as a
national leader in musical excellence. In addition, distinguished music teachers, performers, and conductors from throughout the state
and nation will join the staff of Summer Music Camp to ensure that each student receives the highest quality instruction available.
Ensemble performance in band, chorus, or orchestra will be emphasized and each camp will conclude on Friday evening with a
concert for parents, relatives, friends, and area residents. Classes in basic musicianship, as well as recital performances and sectional
rehearsals by the camp staff members will serve to balance the total program. A private lesson on your instrument, in voice, or on
piano is an available option to all campers.
PRIVATE LESSONS
For students who wish to take a private lesson on their instrument or voice, a 30 minute private lesson is an available option for all
campers. Students in grades 8 – 12 only may also request a 60 minute private lesson. The fee for one 30 minute lesson is $20. A 60
minute lesson is $40 and is recommended only for students in grades 8 – 12. A private lesson on piano is also available to orchestra,
band or mixed chorus students if requested in advance. Prior piano experience is required (no beginner pianists) and the fee is also
$40 for a one-hour lesson.
