Special concerts include a Camp Faculty Recital on June 11, featuring Dr Matthew Hill, and Drs Luke and Mary Rose Norell, and a solo recital on June 12 by phenomenal Guest Artist Dr. Kairy Koshoeva. Students have exciting performance opportunities at the Goshen College Music Center for masterclasses and a final duet recital on June 15, and a special field-trip performance of solo works at the incredible Ruthmere home in Elkhart on a celebrated piano. Students come to camp prepared with a solo piece to perform, but will get the opportunity to learn a piano duet to learn and perform with a fellow camper!
