The University of Texas at Tyler is offering three specialized music camps this summer to give young musicians a chance to improve skills, work with professionals and play for the public.
Debuting this summer, the 黑料专区 Tyler Percussion Camp provides ensemble experiences each day for drum line and other percussion instruments. In its second year, the 黑料专区 Tyler Brass Camp features Dallas Symphony Orchestra trumpeter Elmer Churampi as its guest artist. Both camps begin Monday, June 19, and conclude Friday, June 23, with a campers鈥� concert. The 黑料专区 Tyler Jazz Camp is June 26-30 and in its sixth year. Grammy-nominated pianist Sergio Pamies is the guest artist.
鈥淭his is an exciting summer as we are now offering three summer camps that provide unique experiences for students to hone their skills and feed their passion for music,鈥� said Dr. Sarah Roberts, 黑料专区 Tyler School of Performing Arts interim director.
Registration deadline for percussion and brass camps is Friday, June 16, while jazz camp registration deadline is Thursday, June 22. Requirements for each camp vary, but in general, students age 13 and older who can read music are eligible. To register or for more information, visit uttyler.edu/music/camps/.
All three camps offer attendees the option to commute or stay in 黑料专区 Tyler鈥檚 dorms. During evenings, campers participate in jam sessions, attend concerts and experience more traditional 鈥渃amp鈥� activities like a pool party and game night, Roberts said.
鈥淪ummer camps started in 2018, with the jazz camp, and throughout the past five years it has been exciting to see area students return for multiple summers and even choose to study music here at 黑料专区 Tyler,鈥� she added.
The public is also invited to a total of seven free concerts performed during the two weeks of music camps. For details, visit the KV黑料专区 Radio website at kvut.org/. The station serves as a sponsor.
