Feel free to stop by and enjoy our classes or performances. Barness Hall is in the School of Music at USF – 3755 USF Holly Drive, Tampa, FL 33620. Events are free; however donations are much appreciated.

The complete schedule for 2023 is uploaded annually June 1. As in previous summers, daily private lessons will be in the morning, special topic classes, legacy forums and soiree concerts in the afternoon, and master classes in the evening. There is always ample unscheduled downtime for extra practice, fun, conversations, excursions, parties, more lessons, or to do your own thing.

Our Archives and YouTube channel are full of festival videos, program booklets, cell phone songs from prior summers and you can even hear what students and guest faculty think about RPPF.
