SUMMER ACADEMIES - MUSIC CLASSES:
We are thrilled to announce the exciting new music program being offered at the Wyckoff Summer Academies this year! Our dedicated Wyckoff music staff will be hosting engaging classes right here in town, designed to give your child a head start on their musical journey—whether it's learning an instrument, singing in chorus, or preparing for auditions at any of our Wyckoff schools.
Here are some of the classes that your child might be interested in joining:
Instrumental Inspirations: Students can get a head start on a new instrument or refine their skills, taking them to the next level! With the help of this program, our instrumentalists can become stronger performers and develop skills that can make them eligible for next-level programs like Jazz band and All-County Band! This program is available for both band and strings.
Center Stage Workshop: This dynamic program is perfect for students preparing to audition for the spring musical. Participants will learn acting, singing, and dancing skills to become a true triple threat. The week will conclude with a mock audition, giving students a chance to practice and showcase what they've learned.
Pitch Perfect!: If you loved the movie and a cappella, this is the class for you! Students will explore new vocal warm-ups, group singing techniques, and even have opportunities for solo performances, all designed to help them reach their full vocal potential.
Music Video Workshop: Dive into the world of music videos by learning the basics of choreography, lip-syncing, and performance. By the end of the week, students will complete an exciting group video project to share with friends and family.
Bucket Beats: Have a blast on a bucket! You’ve seen the street performers and viral videos, now is your chance to be part of the music. Students will develop rhythm and ensemble skills while having fun!
Garageband - Create, MIx and Record: Explore an exciting world of music production. Learn the basics of creating and mixing loops to make your own songs. We offer opportunities with microphones, and MIDI keyboards.
Please take a moment to review the Wyckoff Summer Academies brochure, which includes detailed class descriptions for all classes offered. For the best viewing experience, we recommend using a regular computer. The brochure is also available on the Wyckoff Schools website under "Programs and Services."
Class registration opened on February 3rd. If your child is available for a week or more this summer and eager to become a more confident performer, we would love to have them join us!
Feel free to reach out to your student’s music teacher with any questions.
