Band Instruments for students in grade 4 and up (ages 9 and up)
Program
Students learn to read music for the very first time and begin to learn fingerings/positions on instruments. Flute, Clarinet, Trumpet, Trombone, Alto Saxophone, Tenor Saxophone, Baritone.
We teach Theory and Technique alongside of learning individual pieces, emphasizing the fundamentals of music. Also, exploration and creativity are encouraged. Students explore music on their own and make up their own. We use a series of books from The Standard of Excellence by Bruce Pearson.
Students attend regular lessons once a week. Students are enrolled in lessons during the school year from September through June. Lessons are held on weekday evenings from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. all year round. Other arrangements may be possible. Options are available for students wishing to pursue their studies during the summer.
Our teacher Lisa M. Jones has been teaching since 1993!
