<p>Are there any summer music camps (voice included, if you will) that take soon to be freshmen music majors in college? Are there any in particular that get students ready for the load of being a music major?</p>
<p>Just a sampling of the collective experience. Search threads using “summer” by title for the rest.</p>
<p>The comprehensive list is here: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/510498-music-festival-master-list.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/510498-music-festival-master-list.html</a></p>

<p>Off the top of my head:</p>
<p>New York Summer Music Festival in Oneanta
California Summer Music at Sonoma State
Walden School, Dublin NH
Boston University Tanglewood Institute/Tanglewood Music Center (Not sure if BUTI takes
h.s. grads, the site is unclear to me)
Yellow Barn</p>
<p>For voice, the links provided above should be useful, since in two instances the original poster was a vocalist.</p>
<p>BUTI does take students who have just completed their senior year of high school…but I think the deadline for applications for this summer has passed.</p>
<p>The BUTI deadline is Tuesday, Feb. 9th, postmarked. Just sent my son’s materials off.</p>
<p>Thanks Tomdug for the official date for BUTI. They must be doing things later than when my kiddo went in 2002 and 2003. His AUDITIONS were in February.</p>
<p>Does anybody have any experience with the Eastman program: Si Parla, Si Canta led by Benton Hess?</p>
<p>that looks very interesting (and fun), POTO Mom- especially for someone who needs to do some Italian language.</p>
