For those of you who work with advanced high school students, what summer programs do you have them apply to/attend?

Here's my go-to list, but would love to know what else is out there for good quality summer orchestral programs and 1-2 week long trombone/low brass workshops:

Interlochen

BUTI

NYO/NYO2

Brevard

Washington Brass Institute Summer Brass Boot Camp

Shell Lake Arts Center Summer Camp. Excellent music camp program running for over 50 years. Specialising in several different instruments plus jazz stage band and combos—at various skill levels: middle-school through college. Also vocal, dance and graphic arts and crafts. Top-notch experienced instructors. Intense one- or two-week programs. Also great beach for relaxation after a hard day's work.

From what I understand, the Eastern Music Festival in NC reserves some spots for high school aged students.

The National Symphony Orchestra also has a program that is open to high school students.
