TCAPS Summer Strings Camp!

Back by popular demand! This is a summer string experience led by TCAPS orchestra teacher Ingridd Pylvainen supported by TCAPS orchestra staff and local master string educators. Students will get to know other orchestra musicians from different grade levels and schools and have fun making music and performing together all week. Camp activities include creating our own musical interpretations, chamber music, and full group pieces. Review musical concepts from the past school year and be more prepared for orchestra in the fall. We will end the week on Saturday morning with a busking performance at the Sara Hardy Farmers’ Market and a trip to Milk and Honey downtown TC.
