Rock Track

Track Description
The Rock Program at the Young Musicians’ Camp is open to middle school and high school students. Middle school or high school students at the Intermediate level do not need rock experience to participate. The Pre-College Rock Program is open to high school level instrumentalists and vocalists with rock experience.

All guitarists study Rock Guitar Technique. Pianists, bassists, and drummers participate in our unique Rhythm Section Workshop Ensemble. In these classes, students also learn how to prepare for an audition. In addition, they study various styles of rock.

Rock Program participants play in a Small Group and Large Ensemble. Placement in the Small Group and Rock Ensemble is determined by an audition held prior to the class

Music Theory
Music Theory is part of the curriculum for all levels and a pre-test is given at the beginning of camp for placement purposes. Not a lecture class with worksheets, the Young Musicians’ Camp theory classes incorporate playing experiences for a hands on music theory class. Older students who are inexperienced music readers will be enrolled in our Boot Camp Music Theory ( THIS is the summer to learn how to read!!!) and advanced students will be placed in advanced Rock Theory.
