Welcome to Tap Music Project

Learn how to communicate with musicians, shape arrangements, and transform ideas into fully realized original music-then take it into the recording studio. For the first time, participants will experience the process of professionally recording the music created during the intensive, before bringing it all to life in a high-energy in-studio showcase. Led by Artistic Director Sarah Reich, with special guest teachers Elizabeth Burke, Steve Zee and Ashton Carter.
