Mid Term Issue
September 2019 Issue
From the podium........
And just like that, we find ourselves at midterm this Friday 9/6! We have been very appreciative of our students during the first four weeks. As we have been rebuilding and reviewing some of our fundamental building blocks, things have been moving a slower pace than most students have wanted. Patience and effort when it comes to technique building is important to understand. These fundamental skills allow us to have a higher success rate with sheet music and method book examples.
There is a lot of information in this newsletter, so please enjoy! Remember to come back and visit this newsletter, we do not intend this to be absorbed all in one sitting.
