Piano Camp!
Piano Camps I
& II
For several different
reasons, from educationally to logistically, we have combined
Piano Camp I and II. We feel this is in the
Piano Camps and Campers best interest. Students will still need
to register for Piano I or II based upon their ability/age
level. Piano I and II camps will still have different level
courses for students to maintain our high quality of piano
education. This will, however, give the students a chance to
interact with various piano students from across the country at
many different age levels. We feel this is an extremely positive
change for our Piano Camps and is looking to be one of the most
exciting yet. We look forward to seeing you there.
Musical Experiences
Each student will receive three private lessons during their week in
camp. Campers should bring literature that is nearly prepared as
well as new literature, which they would like to study. In addition,
there will be daily classes in music theory and keyboard skills for
all new campers. For Piano Camp II campers, students who have
completed these courses will be treated to a special seminar on
French composers. Further, all campers will take part in a
literature class featuring music of the Early Romantic Period.
Finally, a recital at the conclusion of each camp will showcase the
skills of each student wishing to participate.
Piano Camp I
is designed for the younger keyboard student, basically including
those students in grades 6-8 who have had at least three years of
keyboard training.
Piano Camp
II for grades
9-12 extends the curricular offerings for keyboard students, as it
is designed to improve current skills and open new horizons.
Scholarships For Piano
Campers
A limited number of scholarships are available toward attending the
Foster Piano Camps for students entering Grades 6-12 in the Fall. There is a limited amount of financial aid available for
pianists in both camps offered by the Foster Music Camps. For more
information, contact
Dr. Richard Crosby.
Group rates are available when four (4) or more students attend from
from the studio of one teacher. All four students must be attending
one of the two piano camps. To be considered for this $15.00
discount, applications must be received by April 15.
