After School Lessons for Solo & Ensemble –
I am available many days after school for free solo & ensemble lessons. Solo and ensemble is coming up on January 31 for some of the students. The students are welcome to practice in our practice rooms and I will float around to help them with the music they are working on. Next week I plan to be available after school until 5:00 pm on Monday Jan. 12, Thursday Jan. 15, and Friday Jan. 16. I may also be available Tuesday Jan. 13 until 4:00 pm. Students performing at the upcoming Solo and Ensemble should try to stay some afternoon to rehearse solos or ensembles.
Indiana University Young Winds –
The 2015 Indiana University Young Winds program begins Feb. 1, 2015. It is a program designed for middle school instrumental students as a supplement to the instruction they receive in school. The program focuses on small-group lessons as well as a full band experience for students surrounding the Bloomington campus. It is a wonderful program. Many of our students have participated over the years. I can’t speak highly enough about this opportunity and the benefits of participating. More information is available in the band building and at www.music.indiana.edu/precollege/year-round/wind/. The program meets on Saturday mornings this spring and has a $15 registration fee and $75 program fee.
Have a great week!
