Traveling Notes is an exciting new alternative for young musicians with an adventurous spirit.  The program distinguishes itself from other music camps through its unique formula that combines music education with foreign travel and social outreach.

Every year a new country becomes the stage for the Traveling Notes Festival, an intensive cross-cultural musical encounter. Young musicians and highly qualified teachers from the United States and other countries come together with fellow music students and instructors from the host country to interact, study and perform. Together they participate in rehearsals, sectionals, master classes and chamber music workshops, in addition to several concerts. Excursions to the country’s most interesting historic sites, museums and national monuments educate the visiting students about its history and cultural heritage.  In addition to its musical and cultural purpose, Traveling Notes places high value on social awareness and children reaching out to other children.  Opportunities to lend a hand to the less fortunate are an integral part of the program.

Traveling Notes participants are ambassadors of their countries and gain a new understanding of each other’s culture, traditions and social structure.  At the same time they improve their music skills and are challenged to reach their maximum potential.

Participation in the Traveling Notes program is one of the most exciting, rewarding, and inspiring musical experiences available to young musicians today.
