An important part of the process
Learn.
Play.
Serve.
Musical growth happens through more than lessons and practice. Sound & Flame students will have opportunities to use what they are learning in real-life settings—performing, serving, and ministering throughout their communities.
These experiences help students develop confidence, teamwork, stage presence, servant-hearted leadership, and the ability to connect with people through music.
