In Tune: The Art of Musical Excellence Workshop

In Tune: The Art of Musical Excellence is a one-day workshop is hosted by Bleeding Excellence, designed to elevate musicianship through hands-on learning and performance opportunities. Held in Pasadena, CA, in collaboration with the Los Angeles College of Music, the event features expert-led sessions for drummers, guitarists, bassists, keyboardists, and vocalists. The day includes mock auditions, main stage and breakout sessions, and a full-group finale. The winner of the mock audition gets to perform with the featured artists at the evening concert.

Info: Ease into the day with light bites, coffee, and connection. Prelude & Pastries is your time to check in, grab your badge, meet fellow musicians, and enjoy a relaxed breakfast before the music begins. Just like a prelude introduces a great composition, this moment gently welcomes you into the rhythm of In Tune.

Info: This is the official kickoff to In Tune: The Art of Musical Excellence. During this opening assembly, we’ll come together to align our energy, introduce our incredible team, walk through the day’s flow, and ground ourselves in the intention behind the experience. Just like the first notes of a great song, this moment sets the tone for everything that follows—growth, connection, and creativity.

Info: Step into the spotlight. Centerstage is your chance to showcase your sound in a mock audition setting—just like the pros. You’ll perform with a small ensemble, receive real-time feedback from industry leaders, and experience what it’s like to shine in a high-level, professional environment.

Info: Just like in music, The Bridge connects two powerful sections of your day. Take this time to eat, reset, and recharge before jumping back into the rhythm of your next session. Enjoy one of the many local food spots within walking distance or relax with your own packed lunch.

Info: It’s time to go deeper. During The Breakdown, participants will split into groups by instrument or voice for hands-on coaching and focused skill-building. This is your moment to sharpen your craft, ask questions, and connect directly with top-tier musicians in your lane.

Info: Every great set needs a shift in pace. Tempo Break is your time to pause, breathe, and reset. Grab water, stretch it out, and let your energy settle before we pick the rhythm back up and finish strong.

Info: Pull back the curtain. Backstage Pass gives you exclusive access to real stories, wisdom, and advice from industry professionals. Hear how they’ve navigated the highs, lows, and lessons of a life in music—and what it truly takes to thrive.

Info: Not everyone gets an encore—only two standout groups will be called back for this exclusive opportunity. The Encore is a second look at musicians who showed exceptional skill, chemistry, and potential during mock auditions. It’s your chance to step back into the spotlight and show how you've grown—in real time.The group that delivers the most cohesive and compelling performance will receive a special surprise that recognizes their excellence and growth.

Info: In music, the coda brings everything to a meaningful close. This final session offers space for reflection, Q&A, and shared takeaways. Ask questions, celebrate your growth, and leave recharged, connected, and fully in tune with your next steps.
