Help me rename my camp

I run a summer camp at the conservatory where I teach for pianists. The main focus is ensemble work: duets, trios, maybe even a quartet. There are other classes, like rhythm movement, jazz piano, and composition, but the goal is to have the kids learn a new piece with their partner(s) in a week. Until last year, the camp has simply been called "Piano Camp." This has caused some confusion because there is another piano camp for soloists [also, it's a sleep away camp, whereas mine is just days], and I'm constantly getting questions about the other camp. And honestly "Piano Camp" is kind of boring. So, I'm in the market for a new, catchy name for this camp. One of my supervisors suggested "Piano Partners Camp," and while I like the corny alliteration, it's not quite right. I need your help, Bumpettes! Help me rename my camp!

    Another corny alliteration ... "Piano Pals" Summer Camp?

    Good question, I should have mentioned. It's grades 3 to 8. There are two separate sections, so grades 3 through 5 will mostly be together, and 6 through 8 will be together, but it's all the same camp.

  • "Keyboard Kollaboration Kamp"?  (I know, I know.  But it helps with the alliteration bit) Wink

    "Harmonic Ensembles Piano Camp"?

    "Many Hands & A Piano Summer Camp"?

    (Another 2 questions ... if it's a trio, is it 3 people sitting at one piano?  Quartet uses 2 pianos then?)

    Yes, a trio is 3 people (6 hands, 1 piano). A quartet is 4 people, and could either be 8 hands at 1 piano, or 8 hands at 2 pianos.

    I like Harmonic Ensembles Piano Camp, or what about just Piano Ensemble Camp?
