In our week together, we help you develop your sound, technique, and artistry. Brass Camp is a perfect way to build upon the skills you have, get back into shape before school begins, and improve your
understanding of how your instrument works.

Each day includes a group warm-up, playing together as a full brass ensemble, and sectional time. We help you become more confident in reading music and knowing how to make the printed notes sound like the exciting music you want to play.

Ages 12+ are invited to enroll.

PCM’s three-day Adult Brass Retreat brings players together to delve into all things brass. The days begin with a morning warm up followed by a tutti brass ensemble. The afternoons involve dividing into smaller chamber groups, followed by time with a legacy brass artist.

Whether you are a weekend warrior, a comeback player, a music educator, or a part-time musician, we have something for you. Join our community for three days of brass immersion.
