Open Mic Nights are a fun opportunity to try out a new piece or perform a favorite from your repertoire in a casual setting.
About Our Events
Rather than offering just one recital at the end of the year, we provide a variety of events throughout the school year so students can become more comfortable performing in front of an audience. All our events are optional, so students are encouraged but never required to perform.
Students of any age and level of experience are welcome to participate. With the exception of our pediatric cancer benefit, all events are free of charge for our students and audience members.
