December 5th Scholarship Application Deadline for Pete Wernick’s 2012 Advanced Banjo Camp

Image634581502739900000Two scholarships for Pete Wernick’s January 2012 Advanced Banjo Camp are still available, with an approaching December 5th application deadline.

One $1,000 scholarship covers almost all expenses for an out-of-state attendee and is being offered through the generosity of Stelling Banjos. The Advanced Camp runs January 16-21 in Boulder, Colorado.

The scholarships are intended for advanced players (members of bands or with band experience) who would otherwise have difficulty affording to attend the camp. The focus of the camp is tone, timing, “believability”, creativity, band dynamics, and performance. All ages are welcome.

Applications require a letter and a music sample, which can be emailed or sent by postal mail. Deadline for receipt is December 5, and winners will be informed the following week. For application details, see the notice on the home page of Pete’s web site, http://www.DrBanjo.com.

Wernick’s 2012 Basic Skills and Intermediate Banjo Camps are more than half full, but still have space available.
