The Count Basie Center for the Arts in Red Bank and Asbury Park s Lakehouse Music Academy just announced a partnership that will bring some of Lakehouse s programs to the Basie campus, uniting two performing arts havens.
“In Lakehouse, we have found a community partner that believes in the importance and power of music and arts education,” said Adam Philipson, Basie president and CEO, in a news release.
“Incorporating Lakehouse’s progressive teaching philosophies into the Basie Center Academy’s School of Music is a natural fit, as both programs are committed to the development and comprehensive commitment of musicianship for our students.”
