North Valley Symphony Orchestra will hold its annual Summer Strings Camp for young strings players July 15-19, 2025. Tuesday through Friday, campers will meet at Shiloh Community Church, 19021 N. 32nd St., in Phoenix from 8:30-11:30 a.m. On Saturday afternoon, students will get to show off all their hard work by performing a concert for family and friends. Violin, viola, cello and bass students are welcome! The students will be divided into separate ensembles to ensure they are challenged, but not overwhelmed!

NVSO Youth Ensemble Directors and adult orchestra musicians will lead the camp which will include rehearsals, fun, and games! It is a great opportunity to keep working on musical skills while having fun with friends, old and new!

NVSO Music Director and Conductor, Kevin Kozacek, says, “We look forward to providing opportunities for young strings players to keep active on their instruments during the summer months. NVSO is dedicated to educating and enriching the lives of future musicians. Summer camp allows us to reach out to students in the community who might not otherwise have a place to play with an ensemble.”

Registration for Strings Camp is now open. Early bird tuition is $180 per student if registered by June 1, 2025. After the early bird registration has ended, pricing will return to the standard $200 tuition. To register, or get more information, visit northvalleysymphony.org/summercamp.

NVSO is partially funded by grants from the Phoenix Office of Arts and Culture through appropriations from the Phoenix City Council, and from the Arizona Commission on the Arts, an agency of the State of Arizona.
