Ventura Music Festival - Music Connects

Each week a performer shares in a personal video what they are experiencing and a personal piece of music that especially resonates for them today and tell us why. Some are well-known artists; some, outstanding young performers from our Rising Stars and Student Jazz programs. Still others, we hope, will be talented local musicians who, until recently, have been playing in area clubs and elsewhere.

If you are a musician, we would love for you to take part in Music Connects. Submit your personal video message and music video per the guidelines. We’ll feature entries on our website, on Vimeo and other social media channels.   VMF is a world-class, mixed-genre festival so as to music: “the best of anything goes” – classical, pop, world, soul, roots, jazz, R&B, crossover.
