Wittenberg University: Bayley Music Experience
Open to young musicians throughout the Springfield community, the 2024 Bayley Music Experience (BME) will take place June 10-14 on Wittenberg’s campus in Krieg Hall from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Participants will have the opportunity to enjoy a weeklong series of musical enrichment opportunities taught by professional music instructors. The BME is made possible through a generous gift from Ruth Kunkel Bayley, Wittenberg class of 1942.
Students will be placed in small groups to receive instruction focusing on refining music reading skills and techniques. Students will also enjoy performances by professionals and peers in the ‘Courtyard Specials’ mini concerts, which spotlight local musicians who will share their talents and the stories of their musical journey with the participants. At the end of the week, the young musicians perform at a special recital open to parents and guests.
The BME will focus on various string, percussion, keyboard, wind instruments, and the singing voice, and will include special activities to hone in on musical skills using a variety of instruments and fun techniques. Students meet together for work on ensemble pieces that will be performed on the last day's recital.
This event spans multiple dates: June 10-14.
