Music campers get chance to perform
By Monica Hayde
Kansan staff writer
Junior high and high school students who are attending the Midwestern Music Camp this week at the University of Kansas are getting an early taste of college life.
"It it's, tiring and sweaty," said Mike Norris, a ninth-grader from Broken Arrow, Okla. "But it's fun, and I learn a lot."
Students have been coming to the camp since 1935, said Heather Enos, administrative camp assistant. About 300 students come to the camp weekly. This year, several students are from other countries.
Instructors and conductors come from KU and from high schools and universities across the country.
"We do have some great guest conductors," Enos said. "We have Colonel Arnald Gabriel. He is quite distinguished."
Gabriel was the director of the U.S. Air Force Band, said David Busheh, camp director. Gabriel now is director at George Mason University in Fairfax, Va.
Jorge Perez-Gomez, director of orchestra at KU, will instruct high school students when they arrive June 26. Perez-Gomez said that he taught high school students the same way he taught KU students. A camp such as the Midwestern Music Camp prepares students for college, he said.
"They need to get a good grasp that things are different at a university,
such things" as the size of the orchestra," he said.
The campers have recitals Fridays and Satdays in Murphy Hall.
Bob Asher, a ninth-grader from Kansas City, Mo., said that he wasn't worried about performing in public because he had performed at school before. But Paul Schearf, a ninth-grader from Omaha, Neb., said he would be nervous when he had to perform.
Perez-Gomez said that the recitals were well attended last year.
"The recitals are a way for the kids to prove themselves in front of an unknown audience and environment" he said.
Junior high students can attend the camp for one or two weeks, and senior high students can attend for two or four weeks. The second week of junior high camp began Sunday and the senior high camp will begin Tuesday.
Campers are kept busy with rehearsals and classes from 8 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. Many campers are staying at Oliver Hall.
Recitals are free and open to the public, Bushouse said. Band, orchestra, chair and piano concerts are 11 a.m. on Sundays in the Crafton-Preyer Theatre at Murphy Hall. Jazz ensemble concerts are 7 p.m. Fridays in the Swarthout Recital Hall at Murphy.
Even one week at the camp can be an intense learning experience, Perez-Gomez said.
