Welcome to the Ministry of Fun and Music...
|
For the last 20 years Summersong Music Camp has offered a unique music holiday for folks of all levels to learn and play music in a non-competitive, collaborative and supportive environment, in a naturalistic wonderland.
Welcoming ages 17 up for a stimulating yet relaxing music holiday where lifelong friends are made, celebration and performance are encouraged, and memories are born. We pride ourselves on having a group of exceptionally talented teachers from a range of genres, eager to share their gifts. Visit the Classes page to see our amazing faculty. In the evenings we gather for performance cafes, group jams, celebrations, ceremony and surprises. With a mix of levels from total beginners to touring musicians, it creates a unique supportive environment. It’s not what you can do that counts; it’s how much you can stretch and take risks that seems to benefit all who attend. |
Australia's premier adult music holiday camp

Register now to avoid missing out, with Youth Scholarships for ages 17-24 also available. Bring an open mind, a little courage, a lot of heart, your gifts to share, and any and all instruments for a week to remember the whole year long!

Tony Backhouse, internationally reverered choral leader, composer, singer, arranger, teacher on 4 continents loves Summersong, here's why:
"Summersong is one the most refreshing, inspiring, dazzling and fun events I’ve ever participated in. I feel privileged to have been a tutor at camp for all of its years, and never fail to be amazed and surprised by what it brings out of people: songs they never knew they could write, unexpected collaborations, unusual spins on existing material, tribal energy, and love." |

In Recent News.... We are cancelling the January 2021 21st Summersong Music Camp. The world and our lives have changed. As we don't know how long or how deep these changes will be we think it's smart to seek dates later in the year for our next gathering.When we think of the financial and emotional and who-knows-what stresses all or most of us will endure in the next 8 months, this feels inevitable, and still regrettable.
There are many ways for us to stay together and give each other that super warm, cuddly, community, connected vibe!
And a great time to learn, practise, up skill, experiment within all your musical fantasies.
Join our Facebook Group to stay in touch with future updates and to check out what all our great teachers are doing to assist at this time - such creative beings will find ways to share, I'm sure!
And my personal advice is to: make more music, move and dance whenever you can, be positive about all the positives, don't worry unnecessarily, and care for all the flora and fauna in every form, especially the humans!
LOVE and FUN in all kinds of challenges,
