“Teaching at Camp Allegro is always an awesome experience. I work with budding musicians, helping them see how music plays a role in their lives. By the end of camp, each student has had a variety of musical experiences: they have learned new music, many have learned a new instrument, some have played in ensembles, and all have performed——several for the first time. Their progress and enthusiasm is exciting; it is wonderful to see students grow!”
