Dr. Tim Lautzenheiser and Dr. John Villella will be in Pittsburgh again this summer. The camp keeps growing and we are honored that they will again join us so that we can offer this opportunity to students in this area.
 
This window of workshops is specifically timed to get our students living and leading well before band camp starts and ready for the school year. If you have any questions, ask anyone who has had the chance to spend time with these inspiration leaders. 
 
We bring all of our seniors each year, including our orchestra students. Any ensemble student would benefit greatly – it is worth the time and money to give your students this perspective on what they can do by breaking down walls and creating a vision together.
 
Registration is through Vivace, but let me know if there is anything I can do for you. Please share with anyone who may benefit.
 
Have a great rest of the year!
