    • Long Lake Camp for the Arts is looking for 2 musicians go to their great camp in the gorgeous Adirondacks for the summer. Dates are June 17th to August 25th.

      Piano Instructor:
      The positions would be living in a bunk with campers and both teaching private lessons to students as well as accompanying vocalists. The lessons are based upon the individual campers needs.  And the students sign up for the lessons themselves so you are always teaching someone who is fully committed and ready to learn and work hard. Students are beginners through advanced in all styles of music.  They produce many concerts throughout the summer and so the teachers get the reward of watching their students perform.  Campers love all forms of music from Classical to Jazz and Rock, Solos, Orchestras and more.
    • Musicals Director:
      They need a person to run numerous orchestra pits throughout the summer and get the chorus plus individual singers ready for show time.  You must have very strong Piano and site reading skills.  You will need to be able to teach quickly and with a great deal of passion. This position may or may not involve bunk duties with the campers.  We produce great Broadway shows every year…
