Stewarts Stellar Strings Super Nova Scale and Sight-reading Summer Camp
July 26 – 30, 9:30 – 3:30.
The Lutheran Church of St. Andrew, 15300 New Hampshire Ave. Silver Spring, MD 20905. Catherine Stewart director, 301-260-0858
Violinists, violists and cellist will have the opportunity to polish scales and sight-reading skills before their Youth Orchestra auditions. There is no age limit, but students must already be shifting and have played 3 octave scales and arpeggios. We will practice all major and minor scales and tonic arpeggios and sight-read daily. Key signatures, rhythm exercises, and shifting will be studied. We will learn about great performers, make new friends, and unbelievably have FUN! This will be the fourth year for this camp. Everyone is shocked at how much they improve in just a week, and how much fun they have. Who knew scales and sight-reading could be fun?
Tuition is $395.00 with the deadline for registration June 15. More information and registration forms are available at: www.stewartsstellarstrings.com
