Step into the spotlight this summer with our free two‑week performance intensive — a camp designed to ignite your passion, sharpen your focus, and put you center‑stage in front of real audiences. You’ll perform on stages big and small, dive into the rich legacy of Pittsburgh’s legendary jazz scene, and bring iconic compositions to life in fresh, electrifying ways.
This is not just a camp — it’s a glimpse into the life of a professional touring artist, complete with daily rehearsals, live performances, and the thrill of connecting with audiences who will never forget what they hear. Masterclasses, financial literacy, and musician mental health are a part of the mix too. Each participant will receive a stipend.
If you’re ready for the challenge — and the applause — enroll for your audition now.
