THE PIANO
COTTAGE
ROCKS
The Piano Cottage Rocks is an annual concert hosted by The Piano Cottage. Students (ages 18 and younger) audition live or submit a video to a select panel of 3rd party judges. Judges are experts in the music industry and change annually.
The primary goal of this event is to bring live stage experience to the students of The Piano Cottage. Students receive professional training in all aspects of performing before a live audience. This includes training in musicianship, technical skills, stage presence, choreography, and how to work with a live band. There will also be workshops, classes and other activities for students to participate in throughout the scheduled rehearsal times.
The Piano Cottage Rocks holds 3 shows in 2-days. The same performance is given both days, and they are typically split into ACT I and ACT II. Only 20 songs are selected and are divided between the Acts based on the number of performers and energy of the song. Performances are unique each year with a different group of students and songs.
Cost
Audition fee: $25.00 per student
Participation fee: $250.00 per student. This covers 3 weeks of rehearsals, classes, activities, t-shirt and participation in 3 concerts.

STUDENT
BANDS
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, The Piano Cottage Rocks, and coffee shops. We even have our bands hired and paid to perform at private venues. Band members must also be enrolled in private lessons with TPC.
