Session 2

Four-day summer camp for advanced, aspiring pianists ages 11 to 13

What To Expect

Session 2 is an intense four-day experience for mature young pianists!

• Private lessons with our faculty members, Amy Grinsteiner and Jensina Oliver.
• Assigned practice rooms with 2 hours of dedicated practice time each day.
• Daily Master Classes — all students will perform in one class for Professor Robin McCabe or Professor Craig Sheppard.
• Seminar group activities given by SPU Faculty, UW Faculty, or other experts.

Housing During Your Stay

For students traveling from out of the area, housing options are available at Seattle Pacific University. There are also many hotels near the university. Seattle Pacific University provides dining options on campus, and many off-campus eateries are close by.

Session 2 is a DAY camp only. SPI provides no stewardship of students after the activities of the day are completed. If students wish to stay on campus, a parent or guardian must stay with them in the dorm.
