Hi all,
Sorry for the extra email, but the Salem Pops Orchestra is offering a great music scholarship for students attending a summer music camp - the scholarship will be awarded to equal one half the cost of the camp, up to $500. Financial need is not required or considered. The deadline for this scholarship is April 24 - I believe students need to already be enrolled in the camp, so time is of the essence.
For full information, go to:

Because I am new to the area, I don't have a full list of local music camps, but I am more than willing to search around for appropriate camps for any interested in students. From what I know, there are many fine camps in a 50-75 mile radius and many regional and national camps that might still have availability for interested and qualified students - everything from highly concentrated orchestral experiences to music camps that combine arts and/or theatre with a healthy dose of summer fun. Please take advantage of this generous scholarship possibility - a summer music camp experience is usually a fantastic one and almost always leaves a students more inspired and motivated to become a even better musician.

Orchestra News
1) Videos on a new blog!! Ms. Silberman is putting all the ensemble performances up on a new Website: www.titanorchestrasvideo.blogspot.com. ("Orchestra News" issues, interesting additional information, pictures, links and updates from Ms. Silberman still at www.titanorchestras.blogspot.com).
All students in the West orchestra program performed in an ensemble for the semester 1 final. Videos of those performances will all be up on the new blog site by the end of the weekend (currently, there are 6 groups up, more being loaded up every day). Please ask the student what the name of their piece is - Ms. Silberman will not post the names of the students on the blog for privacy sake.
Chamber music is, in Ms. Silberman's opinion, the very best reason for playing a stringed instrument. Solo performance and orchestral participation are fantastic too, but playing with one, two, three or more other people with one person per part can be so wonderful and rewarding. Students in the orchestra program will have the opportunity to play in ensembles each January, and more often in some circumstances. Hope that you enjoy watching the performances.
2) Great review option and 'support your fellow musicians' opportunity -the Salem Youth Symphony is performing this Saturday at 7pm at Corban. Here's the info off the Web site (www.salemyouthsymphony.org).
