We invite selected concert band, choral, and orchestral youth programs to experience the Mountain Spring Festival, a 6-day (5-night) celebration of music and culture surrounded by the breath-taking beauty of the Rockies. Throughout the festival, there will be lots of opportunities to explore the diverse landscapes, perform in various locations, and have workshops with guest clinicians.
