@ What is Performathon? Performathon is a festival of continuous performances where students showcase their talents and help fundraise for the organization. Every CMCB department participates, and students from our community music school and our community engagement partnerships all perform—over 100 performances between 9am on Friday and 5pm on Saturday!  Where else can you hear students of every age and background playing music from every genre and style you can think of? Only at CMCB! This year’s Performathon is a series of in-person concerts and events that will be premiered in Allen Hall, and streamed live for audiences across all performances and sessions: January 30 – January 31, 2026.
