JOY! Conservatory Program

Now entering its seventeenth year, the JOY! Conservatory Program provides full scholarships and unique educational opportunities for talented and highly motivated young musicians who sing, play an instrument, or are interested in music composition, through a competitive application and audition process.

During the academic year, students accepted into the JOY! Conservatory Program participate in a rigorous course of study that may include:
  • Weekly instrumental/vocal lessons with private teacher of choice for one school year. 
  • When available, the opportunity for instruction and participation in master classes and ensemble coachings.
  • The opportunity to perform in a JOY! Conservatory recital.

Students enrolled in the JOY! Conservatory Program also have the opportunity to attend select professional performances, concerts, recitals, and master classes, at Jorgensen Center for the Performing Arts and the UConn School of Fine Arts in Storrs at no cost.
