PERFORMING ENSEMBLES

Playing in a group is an important part of music education and a valuable supplement to private lessons. Students find enrichment through ensemble participation, and the responsibility of playing with others helps with sight reading, counting, multitasking, and leadership skills. The ensemble experience also helps develop an understanding of how one’s instrument part fits into the whole and provides the opportunity to perform for a live audience.

PRIVATE MUSIC LESSONS

Private lessons are the core of our program and are offered during the 17-week Fall (September – January) and Spring Semesters (January – June). Lessons can begin at any time during the semester and can be arranged for 30, 45 or 60 minutes each week. For some instruments, it is possible to arrange semi-private lessons through consultation with the instructor.
