Grand Rapids, Minnesota
The IOSP Summer Jazz Camp is a day
camp designed for strings players
with a classical, folk, or bluegrass
background who have at least
three years prior experience with a
stringed instrument.
The camp is being held at Grand
Rapids High School. Each day will
include instruction and ensemble
with optional opportunities to
observe and participate in jam
sessions in the evenings. The
Showcase Concert will be held
at 7:30 pm at Itasca Community
College’s Davies Theater.
The camp features instruction by Tim
Kliphuis, one of the world’s best jazz
violinists and a skilled educator with
support from some of Minnesota’s
most versatile strings players.
Students will explore the subjects of
jazz and improvisation and will learn
new techniques and theory that will
not only expand their repertoire but
also enhance their understanding
and ability in their primary area of
study – whether it is classical, folk,
or bluegrass.
