CAF Conservatory - The Continuo Arts Conservatory provided private instruction in voice, piano and a variety of instruments. Private studies culminated in a recital featuring the private students enrolled at the conservatory. A staff of exemplary working musicians, most with Master's to Doctorate degrees are committed to the artistic growth and success of each individual student. Lessons take place in our conservatory studios.
Broadway and Beyond - The Broadway and Beyond program ran its three-week musical theater intensive in collaboration with Rad Theatricals, a nearby musical theater company. The intensive culminated in an abridged production of the musical Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Performances - Continuo Arts produced two major shows in 2024 in Summit, New Jersey, both involving the organizations full membership with a live orchestra. Additionally, choristers appeared at Carnegie Hall to sing for internationally renowned conductor, John Rutter. The organization also held two fundraisers in 2024, the Annual Fund Cabaret and the Annual Gala, both featuring various performers from within the membership. Youth Choir ensembles were featured at the Annual Gala along with soloists and a Benny Goodman-style Big Band. Production levels, audience development, participation and public reception vastly surpassed expectations, with the 2024 Gala being the best attended in the history of the organization.
Flute Choir - In 2024, Continuo Arts began a flute choir program. This program featured several flautists performing together and individually during the organization's performances.
