BEYOND MUSIC CLASSES

Basic instrument instruction is offered to children (K-12) in a group setting. As students continue their musical studies, they can join advanced courses, begin private lessons, or join music ensembles.

Private lessons are a great option for students who want or need a customized learning path. Lessons are customized to meet the needs and learning style of each student and the student’s progress determines the pace. Private lessons prepare students for musical performances where they can demonstrate their talent and others can watch and enjoy.

See all of our private lesson options now!

CHILDREN'S MUSIC ENSEMBLES

An ensemble can be the next step for a passionate music student and may encourage some students to continue their studies. Our performance groups invite students to apply their individual studies to collectively perform art – playing and performing with friends can be fun and fulfilling.
