Ensembles
Exciting & New Musical Experiences!
Campers will be placed into smaller ensembles for deeper instruction and team building. They will also participate in a mass horn choir ensemble. Ensembles allow campers to meet other horn players, and be coached by a different teacher than to whom they are accustomed; to learn in a different way. There is value in campers playing with unfamiliar instructors and campers.
Personalized Instruction
Learning from instructors with whom they have not previously studied under, campers come to discover new ways to improve technique and musicality.
One on One Instruction will emphasize embouchure building, high register exercises & ideas, to lip trills, as well as simply creating a beautiful horn sound. Campers will learn the history of the horn, more about equipment, and the "why" behind the Horn!
Experience
Uniqueness - Learning materials that help campers become better horn players!
Each day Horn Camp begins with a surprise topic - that is often a difficult topic to master! Possibilities include: the elements of forming an ensemble, the importance of warming up, pro tips for specific warmups, and respect for one another as musicians.
