NYSMF's wonderful counseling staff is made up of tremendous young musicians of college age. Most are matriculated at major music schools and conservatories around the country, including the Hartt School, the Crane School, Temple University, Missouri, Indiana, Cincinnati, Carnegie-Mellon, Ithaca, Fredonia, Ohio State, Oberlin, Wesleyan, Skidmore, and Harvard, among many others.

NYSMF enjoys a high counselor-to-student ratio, ensuring there will always be a "big brother" or a "big sister" available to help with any of life's little problems, as well as being fully qualified to coach top-quality musical ensembles.

Many of our counselors were once campers and students themselves. They all fully understand the rule, policies, and exacting standards of NYSMF behavior, and stand ready to assist the faculty, conductors, visiting artists, and administration in making NYSMF the finest, friendliest, and most memorable summer experience ever.
