Montgomery Bell Academy Summer Program

This experiential, non-performance-based course would explore songwriting, recording, storytelling, and music history through workshops, talks with music industry practicioners, guided reflection, and supervised visits to iconic Nashville music sites such as the Ryman Auditorium, Historic RCA Studio B. Students would engage with a professional songwriter and recording engineer, create original written work, and participate in a simple group recording, all while developing skills in critical listening, collaboration, and cultural literacy.
