The beauty of virtual programs is that anyone, anywhere can access them without traveling from home. Email the programs with any specific questions. The biggest obstacles may be your connectivity and the time the programs are offered. So check all of that as well. Note that some of these programs may end up being offered virtually instead of in person and others may be offered in hybrid fashion both live and virtually. I love all these opportunities. So, can you take a summer music program outside of your state if desired?
Or does that vary from school to school? Currently a sophomore in college majoring in music ed and I feel like I should learn new things outside of home so I can come back with a motivated mind set. I am 19 and am a freshman. How much skill is required to enter most summer music programs for drums? Any recommended programs? Explore the many options on our list of summer programs, both close to home and in other states.
Make a list of those that seem to be a good fit and compare. You eventually may have to call individual programs to fully understand what they can do for you. Many offer different levels of instruction to accommodate students of varying proficiency, with the goal of helping them rise to the next level. Your commitment to practicing will help you establish a solid foundation. My 15 year old sings and writes country music, also plays guitar. Is there a camp that suits aspiring country artists?
Hello, my son will be 17 summer of He has had private lessons for about 8 years on drum set and has been playing in the schools jazz band for the last 5 years. He is looking at Berklees 5 week summer program. What are your opinions on Berklees program. He has done CWU jazz camp the last 2 summers and is really wanting an intense program going into his senior year as he will start auditioning for college. He is going to major in music performance or jazz.
Rather than rank or evaluate programs, MajoringInMusic. This is far more likely to result in a good fit. Look at the criteria listed on this section to get started. Our page, which will post beginning December 15, will include more detailed information. My son has done the Berklee 5 week last summer as a Drum Performance major.
It was overall a positive experience he was an incoming 9th grader. He was put into two ensembles, one was not so challenging and less than stimulating, the other was with more experienced players and he found that one challenging and lots of fun.
My biggest criticism was that each ensemble rehersed only twice per week. The rest of the time he was in elective classes, all important stuff jazz history, music theory, musicianship training , but what he really wanted to do was rack up hours of ensemble experience with players that were at or above his level.
He got to do this twice per week, 9 times total during the 5 weeks. That said, the experience of living in a dorm, having to advocate for himself, practice, play, etc, was amazing.
Every program is different — some offer beginner lessons, while others are geared toward those much higher levels of expertise. Also look at programs offered by community music schools in your area — most offer programs for children and adults at all levels.
My daughter plays French horn and trumpet. New programs will be added through early spring ! For now, look under the California listings in the right column. Summer programs offered on college campuses are a great way to get a taste of what a college environment is like and to familiarize yourself with a particular college setting.
Pick a few programs in the list provided on this page from colleges that interest you. Get in touch with them a ask questions to start the ball rolling. And look for our page to be posted sometime in December. My daughter plays piano, drums and sings. She is just starting guitar. Camps are okay, but college based would be better.
International options would be great too. She will be 15 next summer. Programs will be added throughout winter and early spring, so be sure to visit often. Do you know of schools offering music-voice-theater programs serving HS juniors? Thank you. Two of those schools are participating on MajoringInMusic. Please let them know we referred you if you do follow up.
Other options are non-residential after school programs, non-residential arts high schools, and, of course, summer programs. Love the list of possibilities! However I noticed Georgia is missing from the state listings, so I thought I would share that the University of Georgia provided a fabulous band camp experience for my daughter, an experiemced trumpet player this past summer. She will be returning next year. Thanks for your input, Theresa!
Glad to hear your daughter had such a positive experience. My son is a high school junior and interested in studying music composition in college. Search form Search. Opera Programs.
