More information will be coming. Already, many of past staff and teachers have committed to come back. We are excited to meet our new students as well as see some of our “old friends” from the past 8 years!

I am so proud of your progress in making music this summer! Taking a little time to play with one another, helping each other a bit and creating some great moments and music. Here is a preview of Tueday’s concert:
