Oberlin Community Music School

The Oberlin Community Music School, the community-education arm of Oberlin's Conservatory of Music, runs the Stradivarius Strings Summer Chamber Music Camp for string players ages 8-18. Campers are placed in chamber ensembles of two to eight players of similar age and level, receive daily coaching from a master coach and an Oberlin Conservatory student teacher, and take classes in string technique, communication, leadership and body-movement work such as Dalcroze Eurythmics, closing with a concert. It is a one-week day camp running 8:45am-3:00pm at Oberlin Conservatory; tuition is $400 and scholarship assistance is available. Students must play at Suzuki book 3+ level and read simple notes and rhythms; those new to the school submit a short audition video.
