All Levels Welcome Camp da Capo is for adult musicians of all levels. Participants are grouped with players of similar abilities, and given enjoyable music suited to their groups, as well as encouragement and technical advice from professional coaches. Music is mailed in early August to give plenty of time for preparation. The focus of the retreat is musical growth, camaraderie, relaxation, and the enjoyment of making music in chamber groups.
