6/5-12 - Summer Recitals

Alex Stanton • March 9, 2022

We’re excited to announce this year’s Summer Recitals! We believe there’s no better way for music learners to move their craft forward than to perform for a supportive audience. Our recitals are all about making this as easy, fun, and rewarding as it can be! The first two weekends of June, we will be hosting a series of recital sessions here at Sunburst. Each session will have around ten performers and last between thirty minutes and one hour. We structure the recitals this way to make sure that each performer has a nice audience without it being over-crowded, and to be efficient with the time of our students, families, teachers, etc.

The recitals will be held on Sunday June 5th, Friday June 10th, Saturday June 11th, and Sunday June 12th. 

We invite all students of all ages and experience levels to participate! Even if you’ve only been playing for a short while, you can still benefit greatly from the experience of getting on stage and performing the first thing you’ve learned. Students can also perform whatever they like and however they like including solo, with their teacher, with a band of teachers/sunburst staff, with a backing track, with their band/friends/family etc., anything goes! We’ve had so many fun and novel performances at these recitals, we really look forward to them every year!. Talk to your teacher about what kind of accompaniment would be exciting to you! 

Adults are welcome to perform in any of the all ages sessions, especially if they want to make sure their teacher is there. We’ll also be holding a BYOB adults only session, which functions a little more like an open mic, not all teachers will be able to attend. We’ve been including these in our recital line up for a few years and they are a TON of fun!

Sign-ups are now open for our Winter Recitals! Each teacher will be hosting one or two 45-minute sessions during the first two weeks of December. Students can sign up through the link below, or feel free to reach out to us here , and we’ll be happy to assist with the registration process. Here are a few key reminders about the recitals: Participation is free, but we do welcome donations to our Scholarship Fund . You can contribute when you check out, or we’ll also be accepting cash donations at the door. Thank you for your support! Each recital session lasts about 50 minutes, featuring 12–15 students. We anticipate an audience of 40–60 people. Friends and family are encouraged to attend! If you plan on bringing more than four guests, please let us know in advance so we can arrange seating accordingly. If you’re unable to attend your teacher’s assigned session but still want to perform, let us know! We’ll do our best to accommodate you in another session. Adults are welcome to participate in their teacher’s session or in a special BYOB adults-only session on December 13th! Not all teachers will attend the adult session, so be sure to discuss this with your instructor ahead of time. Regularly scheduled lessons and programs may overlap with some recital times, so we kindly ask everyone to be mindful of this when entering and leaving the building. We're here for any recital-related questions (or anything else!), so don’t hesitate to reach out. We can’t wait to see everyone perform this winter!
