Let's start a choir!

Children's Choir begins:
Wednesday, January 18




The choir is for children ages 7 – 14.  The time is:   Wednesdays, 4:00 – 4:45pm

The rate is:  $6 per session

Multiple child rates: 

±  $5 per child – 2 children from a family

±  $4 per child – 3+ children from a family

±  $4 per child – for each child also taking piano lessons

The Choir will give your child a chance to make music and excel.  Children in the Choir will work on the fundamentals of singing, including matching pitch, blending with others, producing a good vocal sound and proper diction.  They will also learn to read sheet music, sing in two and three part harmony and prepare to participate in public performances.  Contact me today for this fun experience for your child.

Keep working those flash cards piano students!

If you want to be cool.... take piano lessons!

I have the funnest students.  They are bright and funny and always surprising me.

I asked  one of my students why he started piano a few years ago.  He said "I don't know.  Everybody else was doing it and it seemed like the thing to do."  That answer just made me smile.  Peer pressure to do something positive and learn a great skill.  I am sure this kid is going places!

If you have been thinking of learning the piano or taking voice lessons, now is the time.  I only have a few spots left, so contact me today.
