Camp Presto

Camp Presto is the perfect week long adventure for the child who’s interested in music, but isn’t sure whether to commit to learning an instrument. While learning the basics of playing the violin, campers will work together to complete a musical story book. Each child will tell a story through a simple violin composition, incorporating the very basics of note reading and rhythm, while simultaneously learning alternatives to musical notation.

In addition, students will learn to perform their musical ideas, culminating in a final class CD that they can take home to show their families! Over the course of camp students will learn about other composers and the stories they have told through music. Each child will be free to design their composition with poetry and art, learning to appreciate the music they hear as the composers and performers they have become!
