INFORMATION FOR
The WP Music Chamber Music Summer Program is for outstanding high school instrumentalists looking to participate in a free six-day chamber music intensive taught by William Paterson University Music Department faculty and students. The project is supported by a grant from the Muna and Basem Hishmeh Foundation, which since the 2008 Academic Year has funded outreach from the WP music department to needy students in the WP region.
The summer program is led by Dr. Teresa Purcell Giles, Director of Bands/Assistant Professor of Music and Flute, with administrative assistance by Dr. Carol-Frierson-Campbell and Gideon Forbes.
The focus of the program is learning and performing chamber music for woodwinds, brass, and percussion. Repertoire will be determined by the final instrumentation of the participants in the program.
