I’m a big believer in the benefits of attending a summer
music camp--it’s a great place to immerse yourself in music
learning with other highly motivated musicians. In
addition, you can have a great time meeting new friends,
enjoying the great outdoors and other activities depending
on the camp. Here are some camps I recommend that I have
either been part of or sent students to in the past:
Summer in the City - The SJSU
School of Music & Dance summer camp for middle and
high school students, held in June. I’ll see you there
at my sax masterclass!
Hayward-La Honda Music Camp - held
in the redwoods at Camp Jones Gulch on the San
Francisco penisula. I occassionally do masterclasses
for them and handle their website.
Summer Music at Stanislaus - held
on the campus of CSU Stanislaus. I used to run this
camp, but am no longer associated with it.
Cazadero - held in the redwoods
near the Russian River.
Silver Lake Band Camp - In the
Sierras south of Lake Tahoe
For my students, let me know if you have any questions
about these camps.
