Performance Program 2024-2025
The Performance Program includes classes and student recitals held at our main site in Worcester (10 Irving Street). Additional performance opportunities include a bi-annual honors recital and community engagement events throughout the year. If you are interested in participating in the Performance Program, please connect with your teacher about next steps.
Performance Classes
Perform LIVE with peers in a closed, learning-focused environment.
These classes are held during weekday evenings and are designed to encourage students to practice performing in an informal setting. Classes generally feature 6-10 students and range from 30-45 minutes. For students who require a pianist, collaborative rehearsals begin 30-40 minutes before the class. Teacher’s prior approval is required to participate.
All classes start at 7:00 pm. Dates are posted in the request form as a drop down choice, and also posted at bottom of this page.
The dress code for performance classes is casual.
Student Recitals
Perform LIVE for family and friends in a public performance.
These formal presentations give students the opportunity to showcase an already performed piece in front of a welcoming and supportive audience of 60+members. Recitals feature 8-14 students and lasts about an hour. Students must have teacher’s pre-approval, and have participated in at least one performance class within two months of the recital.
Formalwear (i.e. “Sunday’s Best”) is required for performance and audience.
Recital start and end times vary, based on participation. Dates are posted as a drop-down choice when signing up and posted at the bottom of this page.
Class Withdrawal Policy & Fee
If the student withdraws for reasons other than sickness with less than one week’s notice, or they do not show up for a confirmed class, a $15 withdrawal fee will be applied to the account. The staffing required to manage performance classes is significant. The school wishes to keep these classes available without additional fees; so, the withdrawal fee is in place to remind families that classes should be considered a priority commitment due to the time/cost for managing the classes.
