No Summer Camps for Music? Have Your Kids Make their Own!
What if you empowered your kids to create their own groups?
We would be more than happy to help lead them and train them in how to rehearse a group and work with them on the material in our lessons. Oh that would be so much fun and you could do so many cool things! Various different groups, whatever you have in mind, rock, pop, chamber or extra, jazz! Let your imagination run wild! You could meet every afternoon at one of your homes or even in a local park! And then put on a little yard concert at the end of the summer!
We’re here to help you do that, totally! Let’s rock!

Celebration of the Scales was an opportunity for students to come and demonstrate their hard work in learning their scales before their peers, the TIA community, and the rest of the TIA faculty. We had pizza and had a great time. Audition Champions takes this to the next level to include the sorts of things a musician would experience in an audition: Sight reading and a prepared piece or two. Students will take the mock audition on stage in front of their peers, in a fun and casual environment as always with TIA, and afterwards they will get encouraging feedback from us, we will all have pizza, and have a great time!
