This will be the 65 consecutive years Halewyn Foundation is holding this Music Summer Camp!
Every day, for some 8 hours, we rehearse in large groups with orchestra instruments but also in chamber music groups. But also we will sing songs from all parts of the world as a choir and we will be working on your voice technique.
During the week we will explore the city of Bruges by foot, bike and even by boat. And still, there will be time for some sports and recreation. We stay at the Spermalie hotel- and tourism school which stands for very nice food and a pleasant stay.
The camp ends with a concert, where we will perform the rehearsed programme. Parents, friends and family are welcome to hear you perform.
