Workshops & School Concerts
We energise band programs
Students are provided with an opportunity to see what an expressive performance looks like in real life. We present incursions for schools, community music ensembles, conservatories, & universities.
We do it all
Injecting life into performances, we unleash the expressive being that lives inside of everyone. We provide a collaborative workshop focusing on performance technique, improvisation & arrangement masterclasses, and schools concerts.

We work with band directors & principals who want to enrich their greater school community and boost their music program.
