Honors Chamber Winds
June 22-July 5, 2008
(Camp will take place over the weekend of June 28 & 29 and on July 4th)

Audition required

Our Honors Chamber Winds camp is the most competitive of our honors summer camps.
Accepting a maximum of 15 students, this camp not only provides exceptional instruction for wind instruments through one-on-one sessions and a large chamber winds ensemble, but students in this elite camp also form the wind section of our Symphony Orchestra.

Instrumentation is limited to:
Oboe, Flute, Clarinet, Bassoon, Horn, Trumpet, Trombone, & Tuba

Our Honors Camps combine the best aspects of our individual workshops and our large ensemble camps to create a premier educational experience. Each camp is designed to provide select music students with the kind of challenging, inspiring and motivating instruction that can only be found at FSU. Auditions are required.
