Student Divisions at America's Camp
Drum Majors
For four decades, student leaders and band directors have looked to Bands of America for the latest in drum major and leadership training.
Marching Band
Improve your technique playing marching snare, tenor, or bass drum. This camp is perfect if you are new to battery percussion or a seasoned veteran. You will also learn more about marching and movement while working with some of the current “rockstars” of marching percussion!
Color Guard – High School
Whether you are a beginner or experienced, the high school Color Guard Division is the perfect place to learn dance, flag, and weapon! Our curriculum immerses students in hands-on, experiential learning opportunities with leading instructors.
Color Guard – Middle School
More and more students are having the opportunity to learn and perform in middle school color guards. We're here to help! Beginners learn from the fundamentals; those with some experience get to advance their skills. Fun and informative hands-on experience for students entering Grades 7-8.
Concert Band – High School
The Concert Band Division returns to the Summer Symposium! Students have the opportunity to rehearse under the baton of an outstanding conductor, participate in sectionals and master classes, and the full Summer Symposium experience!
Concert Band – Middle School
Middle school students can advance their skills on their instrument while growing their interest and involvement in band at the Summer Symposium. Our coordinators walk the walk as middle school band directors and have designed a curriculum that will be a fun, educational experience for students going into Grades 7-8.
Percussion
Whether you are new to battery percussion or a seasoned veteran, hone your craft in playing, marching, and movement by working with some of the current “rock stars” of Marching Percussion!
Music Production Boot Camp
Students work with and learn from award-winning recording engineers, professional musicians, and producers. With a hands-on production approach, interact with teachers and professionals while recording, mixing, and mastering. Learn the music theory and Ableton skills behind some of your favorite hits and hone your own songwriting skills.
Leadership Weekend
Interact with student leaders from across the country at one of the premier leadership programs created specifically for music students.
Concert and Events Every Night!
Many things set the Music for All Summer Symposium apart, including our nightly concert series (one of our student campers’ favorite parts of the experience)! Each evening features artists and groups presenting a variety of musical performance genres and provides immersive performance experiences for camper students.
Become a Leader!
Spend an inspired, fun weekend with renowned teachers, exciting artists, and fellow campers from across the country, and even from around the world. Enjoy a safe and supportive environment and a real campus-life experience. You’ll not only grow as a musician and performer, but you’ll also have a positively life-changing experience.
Leadership is the theme throughout the Symposium week. Kick it all off by adding on the Leadership Weekend Experience for the ultimate summer camp!
