Orchestra Camp

The Hunterdon Symphony Orchestra Camp is open to advanced students of orchestral instruments (excluding piano) entering grade 7 through adult. Many adults use the program as a bridge back to ensemble playing, while some are new to their instruments.

 

The repertoire chosen for the week is the same as that used by professional symphonies worldwide - not simplified or reduced scores. 

​

This year’s repertoire includes: Beethoven Symphony No 5 (first or last movement), Copland Hoe Down, Handel Royal Fireworks, Debussy Claire de Lune, and Mancini Pink Panther.

 

Students spend five days of sessions, 9:00 am - noon, working in small groups with coaches from Hunterdon Symphony, and together as a full orchestra.

 

Music is learned and performed in this  5-day period, ensuring a fast-paced, intense working environment.  The week culminates with a concert performed before an audience of family and friends.

 

Lawrence Kursar conducts the concert, giving students an authentic orchestral playing experience.

​

The final concert will be Friday, July 11, 7:00 pm at the Clinton Presbyterian Church, Clinton, NJ

​

Registration Deadline:  June 9.

 ​
Music will be available in June, with pick-up dates provided to registered students after June 9.
