Laney Summer Music Program

Located in the heart of the Arts Center of Oakland, only steps away from the Oakland Art Museum and the Calvin Simmons Theater and adjacent to the Lake Merrit BART station, students can commute from anywhere in the greater Bay Area. The two week sessions include large group and sectional rehearsals along with repertory and theory workshops. The conducting staff, all professional educators, is joined by college and university students from the Bay Area's finest music schools. Students have the opportunity to work one on one with counselors on their specific instrument to gain valuable playing techniques.
