Ensemble and Group Performance Programs

Introduction & Tuition

Ages 9 years and up

Duration: 26 classes (October - May)

Ensemble Chair: Sarah Freiberg

Individual instructors will provide students with specific weekly days and times for ensemble classes for the year. Students will participate in a total of 20 ensemble classes.

Ensemble students flourish as they develop a camaraderie with their ensemble partners, a sense of responsibility to the group, and pride in their accomplishments. Participants are placed with students who share a similar level of experience and ability.

• The ensemble program is designed for intermediate to advanced instrumentalists. Students need to be familiar with note reading and basic rhythm. Every effort will be made to place interested students.
• Days/times of music ensembles vary depending on instructor's schedule.
• Placement is by audition. New students audition for the ensemble instructors prior to group placement. Audition consists of one prepared piece and one scale of applicant's choice. Sight-reading may be requested.
• Minimum enrollment depends on the specific ensemble.
• Powers Music School has an extensive collection of viols available for rent.
