Wabass Institute and Wabass Workshop 2013

Hey everybody!
Wabass Institute and Wabass Workshop are two camps this summer that should be of interest to just about everyone in this forum, and more. Wabass Institute is a 6 day camp, tuition-free (just get there!) and features daily lessons with Hal Robinson, Eric Larson, and Ranaan Meyer. There are also daily technique and master classes, a recital at the end of the week, and a lot more.
The deadline to apply is Feb. 1st, and the requirement is a Youtube video, 10 minutes maximum. There are no repertoire or genre requirements. Please check out www.wabass.com for the application.

Wabass Workshop is a tuition-based camp in Philadelphia at the Curtis Institute of Music. It is 4 days long, and this year will feature Hal Robinson, Joseph Conyers, and Ranaan Meyer. We'll have a jazz clinician as well. You can also find out more on this one from wabass.com.
Thanks! Hope to see you this summer!

P.S. feel free to PM or reply with any questions about the camp!

For Wabass Workshop the Curtis Institute handles registration. I just wanted to help get the word out because I'm very proud of it and hope people will check it out!

The workshop can be really helpful. One of the best things I got from it was picking the brains of many of the awesome bass players there. If you are looking for music things to do in the summer it is time and money well spent.
