The Baltimore Harp Camp is an annual summer day camp for harp students of varying ages and abilities. An opportunity for harp students to improve their existing musical skills and expand their knowledge of the instrument, the week includes large and small harp ensembles, music theory, general topics related to the harp. Founded and directed by Jacqueline Pollauf, guest clinicians from the mid-atlantic area also present on a variety of topics.



Participants will be receive ensemble music to prepare prior to the start of camp. Participants are able to leave their harp securely at the school for the week. If a participant is unable to provide their own harp, please contact Jacqueline to see if an alternative can be arranged. The camp will culminate in a recital, with ensemble performances as well as the opportunity to perform solo music.
