Greetings Advanced Shakuhachi Players!
I am excited to announce the details of this years Shakuhachi Summer
Camp of the Rockies.
While it has always been popular with attendees over the years, the
organizers and faculty have made two big changes in this year's program
which we are confident will make it more inspiring, more enjoyable, and
more productive than ever.
For anyone who has been playing the shakuhachi, studying and playing
modern and/or classical material, and who wants to take their
shakuhachi experience to the next level, this camp is for you! Our goal
is no less than to make your Shakucamp experience the most valuable 5
days you will spend with the shakuhachi this year. So go to
http://www.shakucamp.com/ and reserve your spot at Sunrise Ranch now
for June 22 to 26, 2006.

In addition to the establishment of a new "Shakuhachi Summer Camp of
the Rockies Beginner Curriculum," the intermediate and advanced
curriculum for this year will be leaner, meaner and deeper than ever
before.
In order to make Shakucamp even more beneficial to intermediate and
advanced students (both repeat attendees and newcomers), we are
reducing the number of class offerings (thus instantly reducing "missed
chance frustration') and focussing more closely on providing complete
and thorough coverage of what is offered.
This year, for the first time, you can start your camp experience
months before arriving at Sunrise Ranch. Camp registrants will be given
access to a private page on the Shakucamp website where the daily
schedule and sheet music files of all of the teaching materials and
pieces offered at camp can be browsed, perused, and downloaded at will.
Audio files will also be made available for musical reference.
While the number of offerings will be less than in camps past, the
variety of genre and style will remain the same, if not increase. In
addition to the standard classical Honkyoku (Zen solos) and Sankyoku
(shamisen/koto/shakuhachi), and modern solos and ensembles, faculty
will teach their own compositions and modern commissions.
Finally, for one period each day, ALL camp participants, from beginner
to advanced, join together for lectures and instruction on some core
facet of the Shakuhachi: repertoire, technique, theory, philosophy,
history, lore and more.
It is going to be a wonderful 4 nights and 5 days. We hope to see you
there!
Cheers,
