The PRIZM Ensemble brings expert coaching in woodwinds, brass, and strings directly to your school—empowering students with the technical precision and artistic insight needed to elevate their musicianship. Middle and high school students specializing in strings, woodwinds, and brass will also have the unique opportunity to participate in a mock All-West audition. Students will perform their audition materials, receive professional feedback, and take part in a 30-minute personalized coaching session—all designed to boost confidence and readiness just days before the real audition.

Each June, PRIZM hosts its annual Summer Camp and International Music Festival—a celebration of music, learning, and community. Held at Shady Grove Presbyterian Church, the camp offers students the chance to deepen their musical skills in a supportive, collaborative environment. Participants learn from distinguished faculty from Memphis and beyond, and enjoy performances by world-class chamber ensembles such as the Dior Quartet, INTERWOVEN, and Imani Winds. It’s a transformative experience that fosters both artistic excellence and personal growth.

Each March, the PRIZM Chamber Music Competition offers students a valuable opportunity to prepare for their Solo & Ensemble auditions while showcasing their talents in a supportive, competitive setting. Participants may register as individuals or as part of a small ensemble to perform for a panel of distinguished judges, receive constructive feedback, and compete for exciting awards—including scholarships to the PRIZM Summer Camp & International Chamber Music Festival, trophies, certificates, and cash prizes. New this year: The competition is now open to undergraduate college students, expanding our commitment to nurturing musical growth across all levels.
