The Piano Cottage Rocks 2024
The Piano Cottage Rocks is an annual concert where students 18 and under can participate. The primary goal of this event is to give live stage experience to our students.
Students receive professional training in all aspects of performing before a live audience. This includes: Musicianship, technical skills, stage presence, choreography, and collaboration with a live band.
The Piano Cottage Rocks holds 3 shows over the course of 2 days. The same performance is given both days, and they are typically split into ACT I and ACT II.
The venue for the concert this year will be the East Grand Rapids Performing Arts Center (2211 Lake Dr SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49506, United States).
We have several student bands with varying experience levels. This program is designed for students looking to compose, record, produce, and perform their own original music as well as their arrangements of other popular tunes.
Student bands have had great success performing on WoodTV and venues such as the DeVos Performance Hall, Frederick Meijer Gardens, Wealthy Theatre, and private venues.
Requirements: Interested individuals must be enrolled in private lessons with TPC to participate in the Band Program.
The Cottage Chorus provides a unique experience for aspiring singers seeking experience in harmonization and choreography. Students ranging from 8–15 years will study inspiring contemporary and classical choral arrangements, and learn techniques to improve their vocal abilities.
