<p>D has plane reservations for interlochen and is excited. She gets into Traverse City, late at 9:10. I’m going to the camp on 7/31 for 3 nights to watch some music including, “les Preludes”. I’m then going to take d on a 4 day tour of a few colleges including Uof M Ann Arbor and St. Olaf’s in Minnesota. We aren’t sure what other schools but possibly St. Lawrence in Minnesota. We will then fly back to California from Minneapolis. I am excited about seeing Interlochen again for the 1st time in 35 years. Any other parents going to Interlochen at pick up time?</p>
<p>singermama-
If d decides to go back, we will be there for les preludes! That weekend is such a great memory for us. It was bittersweet, d really had the time of her life and did not want it to end. The morning we picked her up to start our ride back home was so hard…she sobbed through Michigan…and so did I. It was really an amazing experience.
Also, see who your d studies with this summer. We added schools to d’s list, and it looks like she will be going to a school to study with her instructor from Interlochen!</p>
<p>Re Interlochen at pick-up time: I’ll be there! A tip: Les Preludes is free with open seating and the lines start literally hours before the performance. You should plan a small picnic or bring some reading material. I was surprsed that the rest of the season-end performances were ticketed for $$$. I figured that I had spent enough, but I guess not…</p>
<p>So true Linde! Husband and I brought sandwiches, blankets and books for the waiting! It was an absolutely gorgeous afternoon, so we really enjoyed it. Music was coming from the practice huts, lots of people…really a nice way to spend the day. Also, when the sandwiches are done, you must go get Moomers ice cream!!! Ah, this brings back wonderful memories. As far as the cost-yes it is quite pricey, but it is very much worth it. Our kids are so lucky to have this experience!<br>
Also, last summer the kids had the chance to spend one last night in the cabin after Les Preludes. D’s cabin mates all decided to do this early on, so we were able to get the hotel room one more night. Just wanted to give a heads up on that…since I believe check out time is listed as the evening of Les Preludes…</p>
<p>Got off the wait-list! That was fast. I really want to go to YOA though, and I will find out from them soon… </p>

<p>wtg cosmos. i don’t know how to add my son’s acceptance at Bowdoin - will leave it for the digitally adept among us!</p>
<p>Indeed, notfromme. That last night is REALLY special to the kids. They stay up all or most of the night (in their bunks). However – when my son was an Intermediate, almost none of the kids (mine included) had any interest in staying for Les Preludes nor any interest in remaining at camp after the last concert. (I don’t know if any of the new campers will be Intermediates rather than High Schoolers.)</p>
<p>Thanks. I really want to go to YOA though… so I hope I get in. I’m alternate for Kent/Blossom and I wanted to go there really badly too so I’m kind of sad about that. At least I have Banff, but I also have not really heard such good things about the progrm…</p>
<p>I heard from YOA and I didn’t get in. I am an alternate… </p>
<p>They have country quotas though so they only take ONE bass from the US. I think this is completely stupid and it makes me really sort of upset because evidently I scored really well in my audition but there are 2 people ahead of me from the US… Why can’t they just take the best people regardless of country?? I should have said I was from Belize.</p>

<p>I’m posting this link [Yahoo</a>! Groups](<a href=“http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/viola/message/57077]Yahoo”>http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/viola/message/57077) in the event anyone will be in France or Italy, and might be interested in a diversionary masterclass.</p>
<p>The link is from the violalist.</p>
<p>Has anyone attended or heard much about the summer jazz program at Stanford? thanks!</p>
<p>Fantastic program. Many of the members of the Grammy band do or have done that program, although it takes beginners too.</p>
<p>My daughter, 15 was accepted to NY State Summer School of the Arts Orchestra program this summer. Can anyone give me more inside information? I think I read on this thread that a private lessons are available. How does one enroll?</p>
<p>i don’t know if anyone has brought up this program yet, but I attended the NHSMI program at Northwestern this past summer for vocal performance. I absolutely loved it and highly recommend it. I learned so much from the professors about everything music related and I met some of the best young musicians in the country. After that program, I feel like I had a significant advantage over most of my peers when it came to auditioning for colleges. If you have the time to spare, go to NHSMI, you won’t regret it.</p>
<p>I know it’s late in the game but my hs dd would like to attend a vocal program (she’d like to be an opera singer) and I know many deadlines have passed. </p>
<p>We have heard about Oberlin. Any thoughts on the program?</p>
<p>How does it compare with Interlochen’s Vocal Solo program (which says there are still openings?)</p>
<p>thanks</p>
