Sign Up for Music Lessons
This spring we are offering lessons in some new areas (music composition) and new instruments (organ), while also allowing piano students to specify whether they'd like to focus on classical or jazz/pop repertoire. Lessons are scheduled into a student's free block during the academic day and typically meet for 45 minutes per week in a recurring time slot. If interested, please fill out this form by the end of the weekend. If you have questions, please contact Michael Bruschi.
