What is the Rock Show Program?

The goals of the Rock Show Program are to teach kids how to play music together, to listen to each other, and to be accountable to their fellow musicians... all while having a blast doing it! We do this through the process of building, rehearsing, and performing a rock show. 

​

How It Works

Students in each session work together on their rock show, consisting of a setlist of songs. The setlist is determined by the teacher and often follows a theme (a tribute to a certain band, best of X decade, roots of rock, etc.)

​

Multiple students per instrument may be in the same session. Different combinations of students may play on different songs. This is  actually the ideal scenario, as it enables students to learn from and help each other, teaches them the value of listening and supporting other musicians, and allows for a wider variety and greater number of songs in the setlist. 

​​

Just like a stage play or theater production, students will be expected to:

​

1) Know their parts

2) Share the spotlight

and 3) Support their fellow musicians
