What if you could design the perfect summer music camp? Sandy Marcucci wanted to do just that for her daughter, so she started literally in her own backyard, alongside violinist Kim Fisher of the Philadelphia Orchestra.

Listen to Sandy’s recent interview with Hugh Sung on A Musical Life, about how it all started, and her passion for the music camp experience.
