About The Oklahoma Bass Bash
The Oklahoma Bass Bash was started in 2005 for middle and high
school bass students. The four-day camp alternates locations each
summer between The University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State
University. A typical day includes: warm up and technique
classes, workshops on OK All-State audition material, a jazz class, and
a solo class, in which students may perform prepared solos for their
peers with a professional accompanist. Additionally, each student
will receive a private lesson with one of the instructors. Chamber
music is also a particular emphasis of the Bass Bash, so students are
divided into different groups to rehearse bass ensembles to be
performed at a final concert.
Breakfast and lunch take place on campus and evening meals will be at
different local restaurants. There will also be evening
activities that both resident and commuter students can participate
in. Past activities have included a talent show, movie night, and
bowling. Each student will receive an OK Bass Bash t-shirt.
The faculty of the Oklahoma Bash Bash includes highly qualified public
school teachers and university professors. They all have
professional orchestra experience and have studied with teachers from
across the country. Please look at the bio page for more
information about each of these teachers.
If you have questions about what students will learn or other
general questions about this wonderful opportunity for bass players
please feel free to contact Mark Osborn at markosborn1@mac.com.
