homeschool students learn brass instruments

Intermediate Band

Age: 10+

Time:  Mondays, 1:05 - 2:30 pm
Annual class fee:  $260*

Instructor:  Robert Stiles

Intermediate Band is specially designed for students who have a foundational understanding of their chosen instrument and are eager to advance their musical skills. Students will immerse themselves in continuing music techniques and artistry, honing their abilities in a collaborative, full band setting.

Throughout the course, students will explore more complex musical pieces, work on refining their tone, and improve their sight-reading skills. Students will perform playing tests for the instructor, ensuring that they are using proper technique, tone, rhythm, articulation, etc. throughout the course of their daily practice.

To showcase their progress, students will participate in two performance opportunities -- the GCHFA Winter and Spring Concerts. 

 

It is highly recommended that students simultaneously participate in a theory class. Those with previous theory experience may take a placement test to find the most appropriate level for them. Be sure to add it to your cart when enrolling!

*Classes would be 3x this price without the generosity of our annual donors!

The standard yearly enrollment fee is $150.

Register early to save—$100 before August 1, $125 before September 1.
