Summer Music Discovery Camp
July 18-22 & August 15-19, 2011
9:00am – 3:00pm
We are excited to invite you to the Victoria Conservatory of Music for the 2010 Summer Music Discovery Camp taking place in beautiful Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. This 1 or 2 week-long summer camp lets children ages 5-12 explore exciting options available in music in a fun and educational setting. Often, this is a child’s first hands-on exposure to classical music and gives them a chance to discover which aspects of music resonate most with them. This is a wonderful opportunity for children to try playing a variety of instruments before enrolling in lessons or a school band program. Children have the opportunity to sing in a choir, participate in musical theatre and learn two different instruments per week. All instructors are high-level professional musicians with strong backgrounds in both performance and teaching.

Students choose two of the following per week:
• Flute
• Clarinet
• Trumpet
