BROWNWOOD, Texas — Howard Payne University hosted 250 high school students from 36 high schools across Texas at its 50th Band Leadership Camp this week.

HPU director of bands and assistant professor of music, Dr. Jonathan Kraemer, led the camp and provided clinics for directors and leadership tracks for students.

“The HPU Band Leadership Camp is one of the great highlights of the year,” Kraemer said. “Students from all over the state come to the Howard Payne campus to learn and develop their musical skills in the areas of leadership, marching, conducting, percussion and color guard. Regardless of level of familiarity and experience with the marching arts, the camp offers something for everyone, including a track for band directors and sponsors.”
