Some words about their experience from our students:

鈥淚t was incredible to work with Rod Wave, interact with professional musicians, and to do so with my sister by my side! From the rehearsal to the recorded performance, I learned a great deal about what it takes to pull a piece together behind the scenes and I'm grateful that I had the opportunity.鈥� - Caitlyn Coleman, Junior in Microbiology
鈥淚t was the opportunity of a lifetime to be able to work with Rod Wave and other professional musicians.
