Notes: This company is fantastic! I know the administrative staff personally and used to study with them in my own high school days. I also have worked for this company as a reed maker and interned at these very camps. This camp focuses on things specific to double reeds (Oboe & Bassoon) which is a very unusual opportunity. We had one Leeper Oboe Studio student go last year and she loved it!
