PROGRAM DETAILS
The Trombone Shorty Foundation offers many opportunities to provide young musicians and creatives with the skills and experiences to become professionals. Our Freeman Music Business Institute program and “Masterclass” series is free and open to youth ages 14-24. Our Masterclass program brings New Orleans culture bearers to a small, interactive setting for youth to learn more about New Orleans heritage in addition to valuable skills pertinent to working in the music industry. New Orleans culture bearers and artists lead learning experiences for these students, with classes held throughout the school year. Masterclasses focus on a range of topics from songwriting, to live beatmaking, to music production skill building, to social media. Trombone Shorty Foundation focuses on youth professional development and growth within the music industry through the Fredman Music Business Institute and Masterclass programs.
