Our band students use the "Standards of Excellence" book by B. Pearson.  $10 at sheetmusicplus.com.  Choose book 1 for your instrument.  You can go on YouTube and play along:  "Standards of Excellence exercise __"   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o08xfdIWgTM&list=PL9A2z7qUmukrn8nxTSTvwjW4G42jhgKt8 

For our more advanced students, I really enjoy the "ear training" games at this website.  You do not have to register to use it.  Theta Music Trainer:

http://www.virtualbandpractice.com       I've created a website with some of the songs we practice in class listed.  You can click on the links and play along.  This page is also one of the pages of this site.  A work in progress.  

Listen to music and practice, practice, practice!

We are a group of volunteer "Music Mentors" who meet once a week, on Friday afternoons, to teach students in grades 4-12 how to play a musical instrument.  :  flute, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, saxophone or violin.

Please see our Program Details page for more information.

Please note:  we do not offer classes on drums, guitar or piano.

We have our annual enrollment session each year in August.  If you missed the 2019 session, please check back next year for the next August enrollment date.  We do not accept new, beginning students after the enrollment date.  

Please see our "Program Details" page for more information about the registration event.

Adults:  Do you play a musical instrument and want to volunteer 2-hours a week to share the joy of music with students?  Please see our "Volunteer" page.  

Yes!  Parents provide the instrument, book and music stand (all available at local music stores) and we provide the lessons, free of charge.  We do not collect or charge any participation or performance fees.  We like to say:  The price of admission is commitment!

If you're early, you're on time!
