This is usually the highlight of the day with participants playing the songs that they learnt throughout the day together as a group. Each instructor stands in front of their group and helps each member as well as playing themselves. By the end of the camp, the repertoire is so extensive that this session may last until midnight.
Several bands may be formed over the evening:

  • Beginner violins, violas and bass start off the evening
  • Those playing at an intermediate level continue.
  • Then the advanced musicians
  • Wind instruments close the session for the night
