The music program is intended for students who play an instrument and sing, and those willing to put in the effort to obtain knowledge, advance, and perform.
Every year we put on musical concerts and shows covering several styles and genres such as jazz, opera and a philharmonic concert. Our piece de resistance, however, is undoubtedly our three-day arts camp, which includes workshops, shows and master classes in a warm, inclusive atmosphere.
Every year students take to the stage and perform concerts with professional lighting and sound. They also get to experience recording sessions in a professional studio.
