Summer Music Camp - PASADENA: June (Mon-Fri) Grades K-6th
Summary: On Monday June 24th we will go for a field trip to Bandrika Studios, scoring stage to see unique, rare instruments that have been used for film and television. The center piece of the studio is a restored 1928 Wurlitzer Theater Organ (pipe organ) that lived at 20th Cenntury Fox Studios from 1928 to 1998.
