Violins: A quality instrument is vital for excellent tone production, easy repair and the ability to stay in tune. Please do not purchase an instrument off of E-bay or Amazon. I would highly recommend McHugh Violin Shop for wonderful service and quality instruments.

Shar Music An online distributor of string music, supplies and instruments to rent or purchase.
Robertson & Sons Violin Shop An online violin shop where you can rent or buy fractional to full size violins.
Pianos: A spinnet or upright piano is required at home. Keyboards are very difficult to play and do not allow articulation or good tone to be developed. It is possible to find good quality pianos for a low cost. Ask me about this if you are interested; I would be happy to help you find a quality piano. Other businesses to contact are listed below.

group lessons & recitals
Group lessons are required and will be held the first or second Friday of the month in the late afternoon during the school year. Group lessons entail playing pieces as a group in order to start learning ensemble skills and learning music theory through games and activities. Students also perform solos for one another. Formal recitals will be held twice a year in the fall and spring. Other public performance opportunities are offered such as playing at Old Town Farmer's Market and at area nursing homes.
