Music
For decades, young musicians have immersed themselves in their chosen musical concentration during an unforgettable week at the Governor’s School Summer Programs. Our programs are designed to elevate your skills and allow you to connect with fellow music students from across the state. Summer programs are led by dedicated artists and teachers who are committed to the pursuit of their own work while sharing their knowledge, technique, professionalism, and experience. All programs have elective courses where students can explore classes including composition, conducting, music theory, improvisation, musical styles, and music literature. Each program has daily practice time built into the schedule where students utilize one of our many practice spaces for individual practice.
