YEAR-ROUND PROGRAMS

Band programs- Registration is Now Open
We strongly recommend our band program to get the most out of your music lessons.  Our band program builds on our private instruction allowing the students to experience working together as a band. Being a part of a band keeps students engaged while building confidence and teaching them skills such as responsibility and teamwork. In collaboration with their band director, students will work on material based on their musical interest and abilities. Weekly rehearsals culminate in an end of season performance in front of family and friends to showcase their accomplishments.

Our Minors Program is designed for the beginning and young musicians age 8 - 12. Students will learn the fundamentals of playing together as a band in a fun creative environment.
