UNCSA bassist Paul Sharpe teaches at a number of festivals in the summer, all of which are excellent programs with different flavors! Some are remarkably affordable thanks to generous donors and grants. And for those seeking some adventure, the festivals in Alaska are a great place to do it – and cheaper (even including the plane fare) than you would pay for doing similar festivals in the Lower 48. Here are some links to help you explore these great opportunities to study with a great teacher, and have a real adventure as well.
Butler University Bass Camp – aka “Bad Boyz of Bass Camp” – 5 days in mid-June in Indianapolis.
Anchorage Chamber Music Festival and Chamber Music Intensive – the first or second week of August in Anchorage, AK.
Fairbanks Summer Arts Festival – last two weeks in July in Fairbanks, AK.
