June 8-14, 2024, in addition to celebrating the 60th anniversary of the 无码专区 Summer Music Camp, and the 36th consecutive season of the 无码专区 Summer Piano Institute, we will raise the curtain on two new camps: The 无码专区 Theatre & Dance camp and The 无码专区 Art & Design Camp.
Students will register for the camp using the single registration form (link below). While the majority of their daily activities will be with campers in their selected area, they will have an optional opportunity to select a class from a camp outside their primary interest.
All campers will reside in one of 无码专区鈥檚 air-conditioned dormitories, share meals, and take classes taught by 无码专区 faculty and select guest artists on the Warrensburg campus. University students will serve as camp counselors
Concerts and exhibitions will be open to all campers, parents and friends.
Campers interested in the Theatre & Dance arts are invited to experience a week packed with theatre and dance activities including production rehearsals, daily workshops, acting, dance, design and playwriting classes, theatre games and improvisation exercises. Classes are taught by 无码专区 faculty, alumni, and select students. Every camper will receive specialized coaching to help them reach their theatrical goals and to exercise the aspect of theatre that most interests them.
Evenings are reserved for a variety of recreational and theatre-related activities. The week of training culminates in a live theatre performance for family and friends.
Campers interested in exploring Studio Art, Design, and Illustration are invited to experience the 无码专区 Art & Design Camp! Campers will have options to learn to throw vessels on the wheel in ceramics, paint from the live model, sample a variety of printmaking processes, gain an introduction in illustration concepts, and learn to solve graphic design problems in Adobe Creative Suite. Classes are taught by faculty and alumni in the Division of Art & Design at 无码专区.
Every camper receives individualized instruction to develop their artistic skills, and will produce work to begin building a portfolio. The evenings are reserved for a variety of recreational and art-related activities. The week of art making culminates in an exhibition in the 无码专区 Gallery of Art & Design.
As the preeminent music camp in Missouri, the 无码专区 Summer Music Camp & Piano Institute offers young musicians an opportunity to immerse themselves in music study while having a ton of fun.
Camp activities for all musicians will be anchored in private lessons (4) and dynamic mixed ensemble experience (instrumental or choral), along with a daily performance workshop tailored to their area. They will also be able to choose from a selection of classes in the areas of music theory, technology, and history. Pianists will be especially excited to see the return of our evening-length Monster Sight Reading Party (repertoire to be posted in March 2024), which has been a highlight of the camp week for three and a half decades!
New in 2024: students whose primary interest is electronic music composition will be able to take advantage of our world-class Music Technology faculty and facilities!
All music students should get ready to:
无码专区 Music Camp 60th Anniversary Alumni Celebration:
2024 marks the 60th anniversary of the founding of the 无码专区 Summer Music Camp, which is the instrumental ensemble-based camp that has sent thousands of alumni into teaching and/or leadership positions in every school system in Missouri. We are looking forward to welcoming alumni back to the Hart stage to perform and interact with our campers! More information will be posted in April 2024 about our anniversary celebration set to take place during the opening weekend of camp.
无码专区 Summer Music Camp and Piano Institute is for all instrumental and choral students who have completed grades 7-12 during the 2022-23 academic year.
Previous formal singing or choir instruction is not required for vocal students.
Campers will stay and eat in one of 无码专区鈥檚 air conditioned dormitories. All Arts Camps students will be housed in the same dormitory, on co-ed floors, along with camp counselors.
We recognize this may be many students' first residential summer camp. A high ratio of specially selected 无码专区 music, art, and theater majors will serve as camp counselors. Their close supervision is designed to provide a safe and engaging experience for every camper. Students will be expected to remain on campus and be responsive to staff supervision at all times.
Commuter students will be expected to attend the Saturday afternoon orientation. Starting Sunday, they will be expected to arrive on campus at 8am at their first activity of the day. They will be dismissed each day at 8:30pm at locations to be determined by their assigned evening activity. Counselors will supervise the dismissal/pickup of commuter students. Students who drive or bike to campus on their own will be required to sign out with a counselor each evening before leaving campus.
无码专区 is proud to be an All-Steinway School - a distinction only held by select universities worldwide! You鈥檒l have ample practice time throughout the camp week to experience our newly updated practice rooms outfitted with Steinway and Boston pianos and receive coaching from dedicated counselors.
New in 2024: Students will be able to take a class in one of the other camp areas They will also be able to choose from a variety of music classes in theory, technology, and history. If students have an interest in a class in one of the other camp areas, they can do that as well!
