Birch Creek Music Performance Center

Each summer, the Birch Creek Music Performance Center brings together generations of musicians and fans on its grounds in rural Egg Harbor. A music school by day and concert venue at night, Birch Creek offers sessions in Symphony, Percussion & Steel Band, and Big Band Jazz. Each of the concerts features a mix of professional and student performers who showcase their talents in the 500-seat Dutton Concert Barn.

Founded in 1976, Birch Creek is dedicated to educating talented young musicians ages 13 to 19. During each two-week instrumental session, the students work closely with expert professionals drawn from around the United States and beyond. From mid-June through mid-August, students get a taste of the real world of music as they learn and polish music rapidly and then perform new programs nightly. With an average student:faculty ratio of 2:1, young musicians receive excellent instruction in each of the four current sessions: Symphony, Percussion & Steel Band, and Big Band Jazz (two sessions).

For the audience, this means concerts of superb quality in a unique setting. Evenings include performances in the Dutton Concert Barn, in the school’s outdoor gazebo and at other locations on the grounds.
