If you love music, join Music for People for a day or a weekend in our Adventures in Improvisation series or for the Improvisation Music Camp. These music workshops are open to anyone with an interest in music making.

If you want to learn to lead workshops in music improvisation or work on your own musicianship, join the Musicianship and Leadership Program.

Experienced musicians in any tradition are invited to come to Art of Improvisation, a week-long workshop every summer. No previous experience in improvisation is necessary.

Free Improvisation opens doors of creativity for both performers and teachers. These workshops will inspire teachers to take Improvisation, one of the National Educational Standards, into their classrooms.

See our current workshop schedule.

"The advice I am giving always to all my students is above all to study the music profoundly... music is like the ocean, and the instruments are little or bigger islands, very beautiful for the flowers and trees. "
-- Andre Segovia
