About
Tritone Jazz Fantasy Camps (www.tritonejazz.com) are week-long, summertime immersions in jazz for adult (over 21) players and singers of all levels. We emphasize personal instruction, with a faculty-to-camper ratio that never exceeds 5:1. Started in 1998, Tritone camps put amateur players in the capable hands of professional jazz musician/educators for a week of learning and fun.

I had played drums and drumset in high school and junior college until age 21, then had to get serious about earning a living. The radio and stereo were my only music outlet until after retirement and at age 57, I found a used vibraphone and started taking lessons. If you are interested why the vibes, send me a note. I had heard about jazz camps and had wanted to attend. One close to me at the University of Colorado at Boulder (which exists no longer) was available, but they required an audition. Not for me. Too insecure. When I heard about Tritone and the fact no auditions were required, I felt this was my chance to get involved. 2008 will be my 4th summer. Not a long time compared to many, but I wouldn’t miss it. Not only have I gained musically, I have found a new family. Believe it! Give it a try! By the way, I am not being paid for this. ENJOY!
