Rumours that John Gould is to switch to brass are ill-founded! (Wollongong Music Camp January 2010)
*************************
The ACMS three-day residential Music Camp is the highlight of our year and it attracts players from interstate. Participation is open to members only, or to members of affiliated societies interstate.
The Music Camp is held on the University of Wollongong campus during the Australia Day long weekend in January. Members can indulge in chamber music playing for a full three days in delightful, relaxing surroundings. Events include a dinner and barbeque.The camp provides opportunities for both organised and self-arranged sessions of chamber music. Tutors are engaged to provide some chamber music tuition. There are opportunities to perform short pieces in lunchtime concerts or simply enjoy the informal performances by being part of the audience.

NILS KORNER MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP (Click here for Flyer)
The Nils Korner Memorial Scholarship is awarded to a musician aged between 18 and 24, to encourage their participation in Chamber Music. It is intended for those who are pursuing a career outside music and who may not have many opportunities to play in chamber music groups.
The scholarship entitles the recipient to attend the annual Wollongong Music Camp as well as a year's free membership to ACMS. Normally one scholarship is awarded each year.
Nominations should be submitted in writing to The President, Amateur Chamber Music Society Inc., PO Box 584 Balgowlah NSW 2093. Please include details of musical studies undertaken, level of ability achieved, a character reference and your reasons for wishing to take part in the chamber music camp.
Nominations must be received NO LATER than the last Friday in October.
SPECIAL NOTE on Nils Korner Memorial Scholarship: The Wollongong Music Camp was the brainchild of the late Nils Korner who was also a founding member of the society. It was he who had the idea for a residential music camp, and he who searched for suitable venues, ultimately finding the University of Wollongong and the Conservatorium of Music. Without his inspiration and diligence there would be no ACMS Wollongong Music Camp which has given so many members such pleasure over many years. We owe him a debt of gratitude.
