Students will explore the connection between music and the natural world. They will discover how animals communicate through sound, learn nature-inspired songs and works by classical composers and sound artists, and create their own field recordings using "found sounds." Throughout the week, students will use these recordings to build a sound map of the school, blending creativity, listening, and environmental awareness.

Students will explore the fundamentals of music reading, timing, rhythm, and technique in a fun, hands-on setting. Open to all skill levels, this camp introduces a variety of musical styles, including Latin rhythms, jazz, and pop. Through practical exercises and group performance, students will strengthen their drumming skills, build confidence, and grow as musicians.

Step into the world of jazz and explore the excitement of making music in a dynamic ensemble. In this week-long intensive, students will explore the collaboration, creativity, and musicianship that define jazz performance. From blues and selections from the Great American Songbook to modern jazz repertoire, participants will rehearse and perform as a combo while learning to listen, respond, and create in the moment. Students will strengthen their instrumental skills, build confidence in improvisation, and deepen their understanding of jazz as both a tradition and a living art form.

Students will collaborate in creating an original performance through group songwriting and improvisational theater. Campers will explore storytelling through music, movement, and improv games while developing creativity, confidence, and teamwork. By the end of the week, students will perform their one-of-a-kind production and share their original work.

Unleash your creativity in this hands-on, week-long camp where imagination meets sound. Students will design and build their own unique instruments—such as a homemade French horn made from tubing and funnels, a cookie-tin banjo, and a wood-block zither—as well as create accessories like drumsticks and bows. Throughout the week, they will experiment with sound, rhythm, and pitch, discovering how to make music using their homemade instruments and other everyday objects. This stimulating camp fosters innovation, problem-solving, and artistic expression in a fun, collaborative environment.

Experience the joy of making music while discovering how it works! Through fun, hands-on activities, campers will explore the science of sound with exciting experiments in vibration and acoustics, perform together as a bell choir while learning the basics of ensemble playing and music theory, and bring stories to life by exploring music's connection to history, mythology, and classical literature.
