Music

Music Lessons

Offered ages 5 to Adult in a private lesson setting. Currently offered in piano, voice, guitar, flute, drums, violin, viola, cello, bass, and brass.

Weekly curriculum is based on the advancement and individual interests of each student to constantly strive towards more difficult and challenging work throughout the season. Everything from the classics to Broadway show tunes are introduced depending on the level of the student. Lesson plans cover music theory, sight reading, basic fingering for instruments, breathing techniques, and diction and projection (vocal students). Students of our Music Department will be invited perform on stage in the Annual Showcase at the end of the season.

What do classes cost?

What do we need for music lessons?

If you have taken music lessons at another studio prior to joining us, please bring the books that you’ve used in the past to your first lesson as well as a blank notebook (any size). If this is your very first music lesson, welcome! Your teacher will determine what books you’ll be using during your lesson, so please inquire with them during your lesson.

What is your bad weather policy?

Do I get to observe my child in class?

In many of our departments we offer a “Visitor’s Week” where parents are welcomed into the classroom and there is a small observation window in each of the studio doors. We keep studio doors closed during class and ask parents to remain in our waiting area in order to maintain the attention of the child in class.

Where can I find more information?

Much of the information needed is found right here on this website!

We also email our clients at least monthly to keep them up to date as to what’s going on, our calendar, and things to note. Please add [email protected] to your contact list to receive those emails!
