2024 Concert Band & Orchestra Opportunities

Instrumental Tours & Events that are, well, Instrumental...

Most performing arts groups love to perform when they travel.  We've got you covered with high-magnitude, education-first music festival, event, and concert opportunities in many (if not most) of the US travel destinations groups like to visit.  At any of our programs, you and your ensembles will delight in high impact adjudicated performances in fantastic venues with world-class adjudicator clinicians... and that's just the very tip of the proverbial iceberg.  Read on for the exciting, innovative details of your next instrumental adventure!

Festival + Clinic Options

If you're traveling with your concert band and/or orchestra, you may want to perform for adjudicators at a festival, interface with other groups from across the country, and/or work with dedicated, knowledgeable clinicians during your tour.  Doing so brings the music education aspect of a performing arts tour into sharp focus.  We know and work with the top festival companies and music educators in the country, and will work with you to ensure we have exceptional music education and performance opportunities on the itinerary.

Why Harmony?

Experienced, Broad-Spectrum
Team of Experts

Our team of experts, with vast experience in both tour creation and implementation, and high-level festival and concert production, has crafted an unparalleled line-up of instrumental ensemble programming in popular tour and travel destinations across the country.  We've worked hard to harness and implement best practices (what you already like about the festival and performance experience), while working to create and evolve new ideas and paradigms into each tour and event.

Highest-Magnitude Performance Opportunities
In Places You and Your Group Travel

Depending on the event, our programs offer features such as:
  • Adjudicated or Comments-Only Performances
  • Extended On-Stage Clinics
  • Updated, Criterion-Referenced Adjudication Standards
  • Hi-Def Video / Audio Recordings of performances (and, sometime, clinics)
  • Conductor's Video (from behind performing ensemble) for self-study
  • Scheduled Observational Opportunities - watching other groups perform
  • Evening Gala Dinner & Awards Ceremony (Harmony Festivals)

Travel Furthers Education...

The sustained benefits of taking your band or orchestra on a tour go beyond the obvious "learning outside the four walls" truism of the trip itself.  A dedicated tour program definitely helps with recruiting and retention.  Moreover, pre-trip lesson plans and performances linked to your anticipated tour destination often offer additional, three-dimensional learning opportunities for the members of your ensembles.  Having your group work with other music educators while on tour can be extremely helpful, as can your ability to extend the lessons learned on tour... even after returning home.

Nothing Else Compares...

We are a socially conscious company founded on the belief that every performer and every group matters.  At every one of our programs, we are 100% committed to bringing you and your Ensembles an amazing experience that will have you coming back each year (or, at least every time you travel with your group)!  Ultimately, our goal is create a network of culturally diverse, highly-educational, and engaging performing arts tours and events accessible to all performing groups in fantastic locations every year.
