Accent Performances is a premier festival program for bands, orchestras, choirs, and dance ensembles, providing students with meaningful opportunities to perform, learn, and grow. Our festivals are held at outstanding venues across the country, giving young performers the chance to shine on a professional stage in a supportive, non-competitive environment.

Every performance is adjudicated by expert clinicians, with a personalized clinic or talkback immediately following to provide constructive feedback and coaching.

The experience extends beyond the stage, with participants attending a professional performance such as a Broadway show, symphony orchestra concert, dance performance, or other world-class production.

At Accent Performances, we’re passionate about inspiring the next generation of performers and making every note—and every step—count.
