Instrumental Music Lessons

The program begins the week of July 7th and runs for six weeks, with one lesson per week.  The program ends the week of August 11th. 

 

Lessons slots in the schedule begin at 8:00am, and the last slot is from 2:30-3:00.  There are no make-up lessons, so please plan to attend each of the 6 weeks of lessons.  

 

Summer instrumental music lessons cost $135 per student, which amounts to $22.50 per half hour one-on-one session. The cost includes all supplies, however students need to supply the instrument. 

Traditionally, Medford Music Teachers instruct these lessons.  Staff applications are still being accepted for this program, so final staffing decisions are yet to be made.  Additionally, depending on the number of students who register and the distribution of those students, there is no guarantee on specific teacher assignment until schedules are finalized. 

The beginning band student instruments are: flute, clarinet, bass clarinet, trombone, all saxophones, trumpet, and percussion. Experienced players may also have lessons on French horn, baritone horn, and tuba. Guitar and piano lessons are also available, but these two instruments are not part of our instrumental band program.

Yes.  if your child plays more than one instrument, or you are looking for a full hour lesson instead of a 30 minute lesson, you can sign your child up for two separate 30 minute time slots.  You will need to fill out a separate registration form for each of the two 30 minute time slots.  No guarantee can be made that the time slots will be adjacent to each other, but every effort will be made.  Each 30 minute time slot will be charged the $135 lesson fee.

Absolutely. Every effort will be made to accommodate a time and day request to ensure your child can also participate in other programs offered.

No.  You are signing up for the same time slot each of the 6-weeks within our summer band program calendar.  If a student misses a week, makeups will not be provided.
