FAQ about Creek, Crick, Croak Composing Camp
Question: How long do you recommend for each day?
Answer: Each day has a two-hour recommended schedule. You can adapt this schedule to be shorter by omitting parts of the camp or make it longer by adding more game time and music time (we include tons of song and dance links).
Question: What ages do you recommended for this composing camp?
Answer: Since there are two levels of guided composition sheets, it can cover a broader range of ages. The youngest student needs to be fluent in reading and writing and know the piano keys (simple rhythms are optional). Most often that covers ages 7-8. The theory concepts covered are college-level (but written in an easy-to-understand way), so the age range can extend up to 18 (we wouldn’t recommend it to students who are fluent and playing advanced repertoire, as they may get bored–unless, of course, they have never touched composing and need a structured guide).
