A dynamic day camp experience for younger students, the Flute'n Fiddle will have your little musician blowing and bowing in no time! Students will receive daily, small-group instruction on both the violin and the recorder (2 sessions on each instrument for full day campers) and a chance to explore a wide variety of Orff and percussion instruments. Hands-on theory games allow students to practice their "music math" skills in a way that's fun, interactive and developmentally appropriate. Choral training, music and movement, arts and crafts, set design and dance and puppetry round out each busy day. Lunch and break time allow students plenty of active time in the fresh air and a chance to bond with their new music friends.

With this year's "Music From the Orient" theme students will have the opportunity to explore the Asian bells and temple blocks, to choreograph a presentation of flying kites and to join their friends inside the dragon costume for the spectacular Chinese New Year dragon dance.
Music, dancing and shadow puppets will be used to tell the ancient legend of Tikki Tikki Tembo as part of a free public performance at the completion of the two-week program.
