Camden Branch Summer Camp Takes a Bow

The Camden School of Musical Arts Branch featured the final performance of its annual Summer Music Theater Camp a few weeks ago, and the video is really worth a look. Students at the Camp wrote and performed their own show incorporating songs from the Disney songbook.



For three hours every day for a month, these students ran vocal exercises, learned dance moves and performance techniques, and eventually put together a wide-ranging show featuring songs new and old. They even wrote a few commercials for Campbells Soup, whose foundation provided principal funding for the camp.



More videos from their performance and the rest of Settlement Music School's summer camps can be found on Settlement's YouTube Channel.

If you're interested in learning more about the Camden Branch of Settlement Music School, a Back to School Open House will be held on the first day of classes, September 20, from 4pm-7pm. Prospective students and parents can talk to faculty about instruments, participate in a Children's Music Workshop or dance class, and listen and sing along with with the Gleeksman-Kohn Children’s Choir. If you're already planning to attend, bring a friend, or share the event on Facebook.
