Julian S. Smith Performance Hall

You know the feeling...it's time to go on stage and it's hard to breathe, you feel a little shaky and have a pit in your stomach - otherwise known as performance anxiety! Even the most talented musicians suffer from stage fright. Performing for a crowd is an entirely different skill set than playing music - but one that all musicians should study in order to feel relaxed on stage and perfom your best! Join Molly Garrett to learn practical techniques and strategies to conquer nerves and deliver confident, captivating performances every time!

Let's jam! Jam Night is an opportunity for students of all abilities to informally play together under the guidance of an instructor. Jam Night can take many forms, depending on who is in attendance, but usually includes playing songs selected by attendees, guided improvisation, opportunities to solo and more. Jam night is a great way for beginners to ease into playing with others and for experienced musicians to practice improv and soloing skills. There is no audience for Jam Night - more an opportunity for musicians to hone their group playing and improv skills with the expectation that it will be messy and free! And it is SO MUCH FUN!
