The goal of our school is to provide students with a comprehensive musical education at a fair price. While private music lessons are invaluable to students, they are only one part of the equation. They are meant to develop the musical knowledge and ability required to perform with other musicians; unfortunately not many students are fortunate enough to have the experience of playing in an ensemble. The Midcoast School of Music seeks to provide our students with this unique opportunity by offering a number of different options, depending on interest and need.
Each 90-minute ensemble program will run for a total of 8 weeks. In an attempt to make our groups as affordable as possible, the cost for each ensemble will be $120.00; which breaks down to $15.00 per session. Full payment is requested at the first class.
To insure we’re able to offer the highest level of instruction, we request that students sign up for any ensembles at least two weeks prior to the first scheduled meeting. This will allow the instructor sufficient time to plan for the group’s instrumentation.
Everything AND The Kitchen Sink (percussion ensemble)
Planet Groove (the music of legendary funk saxophonist Maceo Parker)
Queen Ensemble (the music of legendary rock band Queen)
Takin’ It To The Streets (pop music ensemble)
The Fab Fourteen (the music of The Beatles)
