Camp Leader, Rocking Strings OrchestraDr. Markus Kiefer founded and organized the camp in 1999 and has been leading the annual summer week ever since. His basic idea has remained the same to this day: To offer children from string and brass classes, beginners and advanced instrumentalists a beautiful, exciting and musically profitable summer week.
After initial support from the Peter Pirazzi Foundation – which gave the camp its name – and under the auspices of the Academy for Music Education in Wiesbaden, the camp has been independent since 2011. The association “Internationale Musikcamps Oberwesel e.V.” is the organisational basis of the summer week. Parents, friends and alumni volunteer their time to help us organize the summer camp.
At the camp Markus Kiefer takes over the co-leadership of an orchestra and rehearses the common pieces of all participants for the concert on Friday.
