MULTI-AGE CLASS: Teen to Adult
Adult Beginner Strings Classes
Learn to play an instrument, even if you’ve never played music before. Take your pick of violin/fiddle, viola, cello or bass. We will be learning in a fun, multi-instrumental setting, just like at school!
Why learn in a group vs. privately?
Learning in a group provides everyone with a more holistic and authentic experience vs. private lessons. The opportunity to learn to work with others, accept each other’s skill level, and make music together is an experience that cannot be replicated during private lessons. Trust me, I’ve taught both!
With an experienced teacher, learning in a group can be much more motivating than learning on one’s own. Students often work harder and accomplish more because they look to each other for inspiration, and they look forward to the reward of the collaborative music-making experience.
