Dr. Sookkyung Cho, program director

I am excited to announce the first ever GVSU Virtual Piano Camp! I am extremely grateful for all the guest artists who have agreed to give afternoon workshop sessions for us from all over the country and the world. Student enrollment is limited, so if you are interested, please submit your Registration Form today. Questions can be emailed to me at [email protected]. 

Dates: July 20, 2020 - July 24, 2020 (Monday-Friday)

Eligibility: high school piano students (those who will be 9th-12th grades in Fall 2020)

Fee: free

Enrollment Limit: 16 students (first-come, first-serve)

Requirements:
- must have piano/keyboard at home, reliable internet connection, a computer/tablet with which you can connect to Zoom, a video recording device for the final project (a smart phone would be sufficient).
- must be able to submit, by 7/18, a video-recording of your playing for Studio Class - this does not have to be performance-ready, as it will be shared within the camp only.
- must be able to submit, by 7/18, a video-recording of your playing for the Virtual Participants Concert - this has to be performance-ready (refined and memorized) as it will be broadcast to public on the GVSU Facebook page.
- this program is recommended for early-advanced/advanced-level piano students. 

Program Details:
- In the mornings, students will have time to practice and do assignments in preparation for afternoon workshops. Each student will also receive one 45-minute virtual lesson with Dr. Cho in one of the mornings. 
- For the final project, each student will be given a part for a 16-piano piece, which they will practice, record, and submit. The administrator of the camp will combine these recordings into the final version, which then will be played at the Final Concert on the GVSU Facebook page. 
- At the conclusion of the camp, each student will receive a certificate. 
- The schedule is as follows (subject to change without a prior notice):
