UMT:PLAY Washington

UMT:PLAY is the antidote to the many Pop Idol, star-search shows which seem to dominate popular culture right now. Using professional working musicians, young people who get a space for the school will be asked to pick up their instrument, use their voice but most importantly - take their pen to paper as it’s original composition we are interested in.

At UMT:PLAY, all styles of music are welcome, but enthusiasm is a must.

• Get started – rehearsal space and other musicians to collaborate with
• Receive expert tuition (vocal skills, songwriting, stagecraft)

• Record and take home their own material
