what is the UPtown Music Collective?

Our values -

Student-focused: Instilling a love of music in young minds and hearts is our passion. Doing it in a way that inspires creativity and dedication is our promise. We guide. We teach. They inspire. Safe and family-friendly: When you’re here, you’re part of a family, and this family rocks. We are committed to every student enjoying a safe environment, every parent feeling welcome, and every volun-teer a part of our success. Service-oriented: Our community is our customer and your investment comes with our commitment to pro-vide excellent service and a harmonious experience. Dedicated to diversity: Our organizations success is built on embracing the individual, creating an envi-ronment where perspectives matter, and expecting that we will lift each other up. We clap the loudest for each other. Forward-thinking: Engaging in new technologies and genres encourages our administration, staff and our students to develop new interests. To improvise. To create fearlessly.

Committed to growth: Our goal is to invest in innovation and continually improve ourselves and the organization through open and honest communication. Acting with integrity: We hold ourselves accountable to follow through on our promises, treat our com-munity with respect and help our students make responsible decisions, while learning from their mistakes. Dedicated to outreach: Music is fun, and we want everyone to experience it. Our students step outside themselves and perform, learn to teach others, and give back to their community through their gift of time and talent. You’re with the band. Providing leadership: We are making things happen every day through intense collaboration, honest discourse, and dedication to action. We strive to set an example our students will learn from. And lead from. Devoted to excellence: No matter the age, we encourage our staff, administration and especially our students to be their best. To reach for the stars. And with this comes the self-confidence to grow in their craft. And life.

testimonials about the UMC Major Performance ProgramFrom Social Media:

(General Public)From Students: From Parents:

“Yet another great performance. Sitting an waiting for Hotel Califor-nia to be performed was worth the wait .Can you say Phenominal ? I can! All your work that all of you put into each performance never ceases to amaze me Keep the great work up”. ... Lisa Foresman - Foote

“The collective has made me grow as a musician and as a person, and without funding from everyone, none of us would get to do what we do. Thank you to everyone who allows us to have these opportunities, and being able to participate in the spring show was a blast. Being a senior, it will be a memory I will have for many years.”... Jeff Fuqua, 18 Williamsport High School Class of 2018

“Music is the voice that expresses my thoughts and feelings that I can’t do myself alone. The collective has shown me how to make this voice of sound stronger, more expressive, and helped to understand themusic education behind it. Without the experience and opportunity the collective has given me, I would no doubt be somebody else living in the shoes of “David” but never feeling as complete or satisfied with who I am”.... David Chubirka, 18 Montoursville High School Class of 2018

“I won tickets to the Eagles tribute last year and haven’t missed a show since. Truly amazing talent, I had no idea this existed.”... Michelle Grove

“I propose UMC does the 2017 Super Bowl halftime show. The excruciatingly painful noise I heard watching last night’s halftime show was unbearable. After 2 minutes, I was outta there.

Time to show 100 million people+, what a great performance is all about. What say you, UMC?”... David Strickler

“I am absolutely delighted with the instruction my boys receive at The Uptown Music Collective. I deeply appreciate their high standards in performance excellence, their philosophy and the elements of character building that are part of the program”. ... Christine Taylor Kight

“Fantastic program encourages students to develop individuality as well as teamwork, responsibility, self-confidence, humility, tolerance and respect. Thank you to the entire team for the positive influence you’ve had on Pat over the years!” ... Jeff Newman

“ I have been watching these kids for years,including my own children. Every year I expect a lull in the talent due to seniors leaving. Amazingly,-year after year, these young talented artists who have patiently waited their turns to shine, fill the void of those who have moved on.Go to one show,you’ll come back for all of them. Amazing perfor-mance, a true tribute to Led Zepplin. ”. ... Steven Rockoff
