Dubuque Symphony Orchestra String Camp

Dubuque Symphony Orchestra String Camp: JUNE 17 – 23. Age: For students entering grades 7-12 (or students with a minimum of 2 years ensemble experience) who play violin, viola, cello, or bass. Cost: Tuition costs dependent on date registration information is received: $225-$275 (day), $400-$450 (resident). Maestro Diego Piedra returns to lead students through another year of our popular String Camp! An exceptional opportunity for young string players to work with other motivated musicians from across the Midwest, students spend the week learning new techniques, studying exciting repertoire, and meeting new friends. Our distinguished faculty work closely with students, helping them to build confidence in and sharpen their skills through large group rehearsals, small sectionals, private lessons, and more. Resident campers will stay in the Clarke University residence halls, eat their meals in the university’s dining hall, and enjoy a wide range of evening activities. The camp will culminate in a performance for over 2,000 people at the DSO’s Summer Melodies concert at the Dubuque Arboretum. Need-based scholarships are available.
