Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts

Creative Music Program

The Creative Music Program, an expansion of Kimmel Center Youth Jazz Ensemble (KCYJE), is a full, school year music program. The program is intended for teenagers between the ages of 11-19, and focuses primarily on stimulating each student’s creative faculties, whilst simultaneously developing their overall musicianship. Featuring various ensembles including KCYJE, guest master classes and a host of professional teaching artists, the course is a well rounded program whose goal is to prepare the student for a career in music, or their continuation on to an institute of higher learning.

Curriculum includes:

  • Free Music Sessions
  • Improvisation Lessons
  • Master Classes
  • Public Performances
  • Special Guest Artists
  • Jazz History sessions
