SUMMER INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC ACADEMY

Registration Information for High School Students
Summer Instrumental Music Academy (SIMA)
MUS 229 CRN #40151 July 6 – July 29

The Citrus College Summer Instrumental Music Academy (SIMA) provides high school juniors, seniors and college level wind and percussion musicians the opportunity to review and strengthen instrumental performance skills and techniques. SIMA includes large ensemble and small ensemble performance, workshops on your instrument, music theory and musicianship, and other unique musical explorations. Topics include sight reading, musical style and historical contexts, ensemble rehearsals and performance preparation, and music theory fundamentals. SIMA culminates with a series of recording sessions in the Citrus Recording Technology studios. If you are in high school you will pay as little as $17 for the four weeks of summer music instruction, plus $15 if you need parking.

The class meets from 1:30p to 5:00p Monday through Thursday, July 6 through July 29. It’s designed for grade 11 through college wind and percussion instrumentalists (no guitars, for example) and meets often in concert band format, but with many other re-groupings and class activities scheduled over the fifteen instruction sessions. There is no public performance, but there are about six studio recording sessions of the Concert Band and smaller solo/chamber groups. Each student will receive a copy of the CD produced from the sessions.

All admissions, registration and payment are done online. The recommended procedure is to apply for admission (online) by the beginning of May by going to http://www.citruscollege.edu/, click on WingSpan and follow the links to apply for admission. The College will then email instructions on how to print a High School Authorization Form and will welcome you with your Student ID number and class registration instructions. Students who will still be in High School Fall 2010 will need to get signatures on the High School Authorization form, so although applying by the beginning of May is a suggestion, not a deadline, it’s harder to get signatures after school is out in June. Still, students can apply and register all the way up to the first day of class (July 6), but they might not get in if the class is full, so it’s safer to apply and register earlier.
