SINT MAARTEN (PHILIPSBURG) – The National Institute of Arts (NIA) would like to inform the general public that it is featuring a music summer camp program, NIA announced on Thursday. The program will be offered on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays from 8.45 a.m. until 12.00 p.m. The program starts on Tuesday July 7, 2020 and will end on Saturday August 8, 2020 with a grand finale.
The objective of the program is to facilitate music classes for the students of the Youth Orchestra during the summer vacation. The program also offers new students a jump-start to get acquainted with the Youth Orchestra and to become a member. Except for music theory and practice skills, there will also be special attention to ‘capita selecta’: music history, the music industry, team work, styles of music, etc.
All classes are prepared and presented by professional music instructors. NIA will facilitate the students with a music instrument. Classes will be held at the John Larmonie Center. Members of the Youth Orchestra pay the usual parental fee; new students pay USD 100 for the whole summer camp: 45 classes.
During the whole summer camp, Covid 19 measures apply. All students will come with a mask, sanitize their hands, keep social distance, and follow the instructions of the staff.
This program is financially supported by the Dutch Cooperation Fund in cooperation with the National Institute of Arts. Please come, learn, experience, express, and enjoy. Don’t forget: ‘Music brings people together’.
