About Us
The soundwall music program
Soundwall Music camps are open to students ages 12 - 17 who have a minimum of one year playing/study experience. The camps are designed for young musicians who want to have the time-of-their-life performing music everyday with students their own age. Some of the music fundamentals we teach are: instrument technique; rock music history; basic music theory; vocal performance; band dynamics; song writing; understanding odd time signatures; developing bass and drum teamwork and how to prepare for a performance.
Performing in bands
Performing in a band is one of the most popular aspects of the Soundwall experience. On the first day of camp the students are grouped into bands according to their age, playing ability and the style of music they prefer to perform. Then, every day the students rehearse with their band under the guidance of our professional staff. As the students rehearse, they learn performance techniques such as: dynamics; understanding song form; how to work together in a group; communication skills and how to deliver song in a performance. The camp ends with a final concert for family and friends held in a state-of-the-art concert hall with full professional lighting and sound.
Philosophy
Soundwall Music Camps comprise a unique music education program for young rock musicians and offer an environment not found in private lessons or school music programs. We offer young musicians who play guitar, bass, drums and sing, the chance to work with other young players under the guidance of a professional staff who are also working musicians. Soundwall students are encouraged to study, develop and hone their craft. They learn that with practice, dedication and a great attitude, they can become the best musician they can possibly be!
