This is the official blog for the 2010 session of the Credo Chamber Music summer festival (July 4-24). We'll be updating it each day to tell you about the activities the students are doing, fill you in on some exciting accomplishments and we will be posting photos!

Credo's vision is to nurture the artistic and personal growth of young string and piano musicians, so that they may not only become leaders in their musical disciplines but leaders in their communities. Our vision is reflected in our mission statement: Develop the Gift, Acknowledge the Source, Respond with Service.

A marvelous display of talent and achievement!

Today (Sunday) we're recovering from a great week of work that resulted in spirited and inspiring concerts yesterday. Credo students played marvelous chamber music concerts at 2 and 8:30 PM. In between, at 7 PM they delighted a good-sized crowd of concert-goers on Tappan Square by playing favorites ranging from Pachabel to Sousa to the Beatles.
The spirit and focus of this group of campers is admirable. Last week they dealt with the East Coast's record-breaking heat wave. Late yesterday we had a new wrinkle added - a water main broke near Oberlin, and we can only consume bottled water for the next few days! The college staff has been very helpful to us, and all the students are responding well to this additional challenge - nothing will deter them from learning great music and having fun!
