Suzuki Private Instruction (ages 5 to 18)

Offered in 30, 45, or 60 minutes.
This 11-week program features one-on-one lessons plus a group class given on a weekly basis in 30, 45, or 60-minute sessons. Structured for classical guitar lessons, violin & viola lessons, cello lessons, and piano lessons, this course utilizes the Suzuki method of music instruction. The fundamental philosophy of Suzuki pedagogy is the belief that talent can be developed at any age in much the same way we all learned to speak — through listening, imitation, repetition, and a supportive, nurturing environment. Initially, music is learned by rote. When the child is at both an appropriate age and place academically, as well as able to demonstrate a solid foundation of basic techniques, note reading is introduced. The curriculum requires that parents attend lessons and group classes with their children and take copious notes to facilitate their child's daily home practice.

Mini Mozarts Early Childhood
(ages 1 to 4)

This 11-week organic program, influenced by Orff and Suzuki methodologies, provides sequential music education focused on the rudiments of music: beat, rhythm, and pitch-matching. Through age appropriate mediums such as song, rhyme, chant, movement, and child-friendly instruments, children internalize these concepts while developing a love for music. Children develop important life skills including listening, following directions, and social interaction. Parents and their children learn music together while bonding in these fun and nurturing classes. The concepts learned in these classes serve as a strong foundation for children who continue their music journey by selecting an instrument and enrolling in Suzuki and/or Orff classes. Each 45 minute class is limited to 10 children and their caregivers. Unlike other programs, we do not charge a materials fee!
11-week tuition rate: $145

Orff Class (ages 5 to 8)

Orff class is an exciting and fun 30-minute group class where children explore general music concepts through singing, chanting, movement, use of pitched and unpitched percussion instruments, and props. Students are strongly encouraged to take this class in conjunction with Suzuki lessons; however, this class serves nicely as a transition from Mini Mozarts classes to Suzuki instruction for students not yet ready to begin studying an instrument.
