Summer Music Camp

Summer Music Camp

The University of Mobile (UM) Center for Performing Arts has opened registration for its 17th annual Summer Music Camp.

Taking place June 14–18, the camp will be held in Martin Hall on the UM campus.

Registration deadline is June 1.

The purposes of UM’s Summer Music Camp are to encourage musicianship, inspire young musicians and increase technical proficiency in the musical area of the student’s choice.

It is open to students rising into grades 4–12 for the 2010–11 school year.

Instruction in all instruments, including voice, is offered.

Participating students are required to have completed a minimum of one year of disciplined study in music and submit a recommendation by their music teacher.

Both full-tuition and partial-tuition scholarships are available by audition, which must include two pieces of contrasting style, demonstration of technical ability and a short interview.

Registration deadline for scholarship auditions is May 13. Auditions will be held May 20.

For more information or to register for the camp, contact Barbara Laurendine, camp director, at 251-442-2402.
