Beginning/Intermediate Homeschool Orchestra (Tues and Thurs 9 - 9:50a)

Do you have a child who loves music and wants to learn how to play an instrument? If so, you might be interested in our string classes, where kids can choose to learn the violin, viola, cello, or double bass. These classes are designed for beginners who have some experience with music and playing their instrument. We ask for a presentation of skills in regards to note recognition and sight reading as well as playing their instrument.
In these classes, kids will learn how to start playing the instrument of their choice, with the guidance of our friendly and qualified teachers. They will learn how to hold the instrument and the bow, how to tune it, and how to produce a good sound. They will also learn how to read music notation, the basics of music theory, rhythm, and articulation (how to move the bow to create different effects).
The classes are fun and interactive, with a lot of games and activities to keep the kids engaged and motivated. The kids will learn how to play confidently and well both as a group and individually, and how to perform together as an ensemble. They will also display their skills in concerts and recitals throughout the year.
Homeschool string classes are open to kids aged 7 to 17. The one-hour class is provided multiple days per week so students. The classes are small, with a maximum of twenty students per class, to ensure that each child gets enough attention and feedback from the teachers.
