For Performance Groups

Student marching bands, orchestras, ensembles and dance troupes are all especially impressed by the prospect of a student trip to NYC.  With the help of an Educational Travel Consultants staff member, a pre-scheduled public performance can easily be worked into the itinerary.  Or, band trips can be scheduled in sync with a Music Festival with or without adjudication (professional judging of musicians’ performance). 

Give students extra special motivation to perform. Band, orchestra and choral directors - create a performance trip to NYC with ETC. Work with a student tour company that has been organizing trips to music festivals for over 30 years.  Educational Travel Consultant works with bandleaders to coordinate the transfer of instruments; booking of performance venues in NYC, and making certain set-up is prepared on site beforehand.

Adjudicated Music Festivals in NYC

Some student orchestra and band directors prefer to attend adjudicated music festivals. These festivals are judged by respected professional musicians and provide critical feedback that leads to improved performances.
