Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 6
Beginner Level
This class will cover all that a beginner musician will need to know to be prepared for their upcoming private lessons, band class, orchestra class, etc. The students will learn what makes sheet music, how pieces can be different based on their rhythmn and key signature, and how to overall read music. We will start the class with any questions and/or celebrations (accomplishments) that we may have and end the session with a reflection and questions. We will have discussions and overall demonstrations of the fundamentals of music.

Learning Goals

The learning goal is for upcoming musicians to learn the basics of music and to become fluent in reading music as they continue their music journey.
