The 2026-2027 High School Music Tour:

Nashville, Tennessee

The Lawrence High School Music Department is proud to offer students an immersive educational tour to Nashville and Pigeon Forge, Tennessee—an experience designed to connect classroom learning with collegiate, professional, and real-world applications of music. As one of the nation's premier music and recording centers, Nashville provides unparalleled opportunities for students to work with university faculty, participate in professional recording experiences, observe world-class performances, and explore the cultural and historical forces that have shaped American music. Tour highlights include ensemble clinics at Vanderbilt University, attendance at a Nashville Symphony performance, visits to renowned music institutions, and a featured performance opportunity at Dollywood.

Beyond the musical experiences, this tour is intentionally designed to cultivate the skills most valued by colleges, employers, and future leaders: collaboration, communication, creativity, adaptability, and personal responsibility. Students will engage with professionals in the field, gain insight into potential career pathways, and experience firsthand how dedication to the arts translates into success far beyond the rehearsal room. More than a performance tour, this trip represents an investment in students' growth as musicians, scholars, and citizens.
