We’re so proud of our Two Grand Studio students performing in New Albany High School’s pilot production of Come From Away, the only high school in the nation performing this show. 💙🌍

This musical is incredibly moving, filled with humanity, compassion, and hope. These students bring such heart to this story, and it’s an honor to see them shine in a production with so much meaning.

You can catch the show next weekend! Tickets are available at the door or at the link below

We’re so proud of our Two Grand Studio students performing in Floyd Central’s production of Something Rotten! 💛🎶

We couldn’t manage to get all of our studio students in one photo, but every single one of them was fantastic! From start to finish, the show is hilarious, high-energy, and full of talent — and our students shine in every scene.

You can still catch Something Rotten at today’s matinee or next weekend — trust us, you’ll be laughing the whole time!

👏 Congratulations to everyone involved on an amazing show!

🖍️ : Mark It to Master It 🎶

One of the most helpful habits a musician can build? Mark your music.

Adding small reminders to your score helps you:
✔️ Remember fingerings, breaths, or bowings
✔️ Highlight repeats, dynamic changes, or tricky transitions
✔️ Write in cue reminders to know when to come in
✔️ Add beat numbers to help with tricky rhythms or rests

Even simple markings—like a circle, an arrow, or a number—can help you stay focused and avoid repeating the same mistakes.

💡 Some students even like to color-code different elements (like dynamics or tricky rhythms). It’s not required, but it can make things pop on the page!

Markings aren’t cheating, they’re tools to help your brain and body stay in sync. Use them!
