Music Masters Intensive

Applications Now Open

This six week tuition-free music program is for 7th-12th graders who want to work with a master musician to improve skills and develop abilities in performance. The immersive, small group jazz experience brings together peers who do not normally play together under the instruction of a professional musician and educator, and culminates with a live jazz performance. Musicians of all instruments suitable for jazz and vocalists are welcome to apply.

Introducing the 2026 Music Masters Mentor, Olivia Foschi

We are honored to introduce our 2025 Music Master, Olivia Foschi, an internationally recognized jazz vocalist, composer, and educator known for her innovative voice and distinct musical vision. Born in San Francisco and raised in Italy, Olivia brings a truly global perspective to jazz, blending rich cultural influences with modern rhythmic and harmonic approaches. She is described as “truly original and far from the norm as a composer and vocalist” by JazzTimes.

This program is made possible through the continued generosity of our sponsors,

Harlan and Olivia Fischer.
