Theory and Musicianship Program


Music theory is the foundation of learning an instrument. Our program focuses on fostering students' musical abilities. The musicianship program will help improve students' comprehension of the structure of music through the study of harmonic progression, sight-reading, and the form of music in order to enable the student to interpret music effectively. 
We believe in a well-rounded course of study that includes more than a private lesson and practicing. We offer classes for all levels of students from novice to advanced.
