Anyone heard of this summer program in Hancock, ME? Although it's primarily directed toward conducting students, my son's trumpet teacher recommended it as a terrific learning experience for orchestral lit.
The Pierre Monteux School
Son has a couple other opportunities at standard music festivals, but is leaning toward this one because of the fast rehearsal pace (read or perform 50+ pieces in 6 weeks), more like a real orchestra. The web site leaves alot to be desired as far as "what a mother really wants to know". So any experience, comments, etc. would be truly appreciated.
