What to Bring:

$10 cash or check

We have a limited number of loaner music stands available, but they’re a pain to move around the building. You should buy one of the GOOD foldable ones we sell for $45 (pictured above). It comes with a carrying bag. It will make your life — and our lives — easier.

Level 3 Drop-In

Music We’re Making Next

Für Elise
Happy Birthday
Heidenroslein

Guitar Level 3: On hiatus for now.

It might be a great idea to come check out Level 3 before tackling the orchestra. Level 3 will help define you as a musician with more advanced chording, preparation for orchestral work, music theory, and further development of right-hand techniques.

Please call (303) 984-0777 or email before showing up. You must be pre-registered to attend. If Sunday morning isn’t convenient, we can arrange private lessons for you.
