Young Women Composers Camp
www.youngwomencomposers.orgThe YWCC is a two-week summer camp for girls ages 14–19 that takes place on the Temple University main campus. Our mission is to amplify the voices of young women, to give them access to a high level of musical training, and to close the gender gap in the music composition sector. We strive for accessibility, and encourage applications from anyone in the specified age range who identifies as female or non-binary. The camp runs from 9am to 4pm daily on weekdays, and coursework includes sessions in music theory and ear-training, composition seminar, electronic music, song-writing, jazz improvisation, orchestration, and writing for specific instrument families, among others. Students also participate in the YWCC choir and receive two private lessons from composition faculty members, where they work on a new work for our resident ensemble to be premiered and recorded at our final concert on the last day of camp.
