Summer Lessons

Summer Lesson registration is here! Summer lessons work a little differently than during the school year. Lessons are scheduled around your vacations. If your teachers are unavailable, we will provide a substitute which is also a wonderful opportunity for your child to get feedback, learn new repertoire, work on scales, technique, and theory. A $200 deposit is due by June 28 and then an invoice for any remaining balance will be sent to you in July.

Summer Camps

The Nelly Berman School of Music offers unique summer camps every summer that focus on different musical historical periods through the study of different composers and their styles, and music theory of the period. Students perform in chamber groups and sing in a choir. The camps have a 25 maximum participants, ensuring individual attention to each camper and their achievements.  Last year, campers visited the Barnes Foundation, attended two faculty recitals, and put on an end-of-the-week performance. Camp 2019, Baroque and Beyond will focus on Baroque music and dance, covering 16th through 18th century composers, with students having lessons on both piano and harpsichord. Camp 2019, 5 Eras in 5 Days will focus on five music and art periods from Baroque through Modern, covering one period per day. For students from the USA, each week of camp will be $475 per student, including two half-hour individual lessons to prepare chamber pieces. For International Students, each week of camp is $680*, which includes three 45-minute lessons to be scheduled during the week of camp and additional programming, including a trip to the Barnes Foundation art museum in Philadelphia.

*Camps are now $30 off if paid in full by April 1st*
