So you have decided to join one of the most inspiring and fun music camps in Bridgehampton, NY or Lebanon, Nj - Rock Camp. Welcome! This is what a day on Rock Camp looks like:
9 am - Morning Meeting. Everyone meets up outside for a short hands on workshop. One day it could on poly-rhythms from Africa, Cuba, or Brazil. Then next day, we may have a 15 minuet jam session where everyone takes out their instrument (we have keyboards for the pianists), and we learn a new song as a group. Another day, there may be our morning meeting be on acapella singing: This is also a time for everyone to socialize and for us to come together as a whole community.
9:30 - 10:30 - Lessons. You will meet with your respective teacher and have a lesson on your instrument. This may be a private lesson or you may be in a small group with fellow musicians. You may be new to music or you may be experienced. All the same, come as you are. This is a time to really dig and learn your instrument.
10:30-Noon - Morning Band. You will meet up with your band teacher and with your fellow students you will learn songs that make up Rock n Roll. That could mean music that was released last year to music from the Beatles. Rock is like a very wide umbrella and there are many sub styles under it….we get into most all of them. You also will get into songwriting and creating original music with your group.
12-12:30 - Lunch. Relax, hang with your new friends, eat, get your second wind.
12:30-1 - Play volleyball, play music with your friends on your own. There is a different outdoor activity every day.
1-2 - Afternoon Lessons. Here you can either study a second instrument or study vocals, or you can have a second lesson on your main instrument.
2-3 - Afternoon Band. Here you will be a new band, new teacher and different students from your morning band.
FRIDAY - CONCERT.
