Instrumental music through the ages has helped human kind express thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and has provided entertainment. Through the medium of instrumental music it is the goal to not create a room full of professional musicians and music teachers, but to develop a classroom of lifetime listeners.
In addition to learning how to listen, through this class students will learn how to be successful, not only in music, but also in life.
