Instrumental Beginnings
Students will learn to perform on one instrument, either flute, clarinet, violin, cello, trumpet or trombone. A fun based instrumental program which aims to teach students to play independently and tunefully. Students will learn how to perform from music notation as well as developing the ability to play through imitation and sight reading. The students will be required to practice their instrument at home to further enhance the development of their musical skills.
Let’s Explore Music
In a similar way that children learn to speak before reading and writing, children will now learn to write music. They will learn the rhythms, pitches, meter, form and other musical elements. As well as notation this class will perform on percussion instruments and be involved in improvisation and composition.
Ensemble
Being a musician means playing individually, and playing with others. Students will come together in a small group to learn how to follow a conductor, to listen to others whilst playing, to be flexible, to learn teamwork and persistence.
