Ensemble Musicians
What is an Ensemble Musician?
Ensemble musicians are more experienced, more mature musicians who want an intense musical challenge during camp. To become an Ensemble musician, a camper needs to audition. In addition to playing the Placement Assessment piece, those wishing to be ensemble musicians must play the Ensemble Audition piece. Those chosen for the Ensemble musician program will perform the Ensemble piece at the Deep River Ancient Muster Tattoo on Friday night.
