Arrange-Con is an annual convention featuring and celebrating creative arrangements by students from U.S. & Canada. 
This is the first year our studio is participating in this event and we are excited!

Arranging is one of the many skills the musicians in our studio learns and sharpens throughout their music learning journey. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced student, this is one of the areas we can put our music & piano skills, creativity, understanding of music and theoretical understanding into practical use. 

During the month of April, students have already started brainstorming and working on their arrangements. Based on their skill level, students use a variety of arranging skills to create an arrangement:

• based on a folk tune
• that changes keys, tonalities, rhythm..
• with hidden snippets of well-known tunes
• that is a mashup of a few different pieces
• that includes an intro/ending they have created
• or all of the above....and more

Arrange-Con consists of live performance and pre-recorded performance of pieces. This, being the first year, we will be recording and submitting our pieces to be played at the Arrange-Con recital. On May 7th, all students are invited for an Arrange-Con Lunch party where we will have a quick lunch together, then join in the live broadcast of Arrange-Con in the studio. Lunch will be provided. This is a wonderful opportunity to share your creative skills, listen and appreciate others' arrangements that may spark further inspiration for you to create!
