This class is designed for students aged 8-11 who have been playing the violin, viola, cello, or bass for at least one year or have received a recommendation from their teacher.

Melinda brings over 30 years of music teaching experience to this class and has been recognized with the prestigious Sallie Mae First Class Teacher Award. Additionally, she has successfully secured grants during her tenure at an elementary school, and one of my classes received the honor of being selected as the Best Elementary Class at the New Mexico Educators All State Music Conference.

Enrolling your child in this class will provide them with numerous benefits. They will gain valuable experience playing in an ensemble, honing their bowing techniques, improving intonation, and refining their sense of rhythm. Furthermore, they will have the opportunity to connect with like-minded peers who share their passion for music. The course will culminate in a special concert for families, and each participant will receive a certificate of completion to mark their musical journey.

In addition, our curriculum is designed to prepare students for competitive events, giving them the skills and confidence to excel in music competitions and auditions.
