2. Join a Group Class
Most children under 16 will start at our Freedom First Notes Academy. These are small group classes designed foster a students interest in music and performing whilst being immersed in a fun and encouraging environment.
Class Types…
Group Singing – 30 minute lessons – 10 Students
This is our most cost effective option for children wanting to learn music in a friendly and social environment. These classes have a set repertoire for the Term, consisting of approximately 5 songs. Students begin each class with a vocal warm up/vocal education session and then sing their songs all together whilst incorporating parts, harmonies and movement.
Semi Private Singing – 55 minutes – Maximum 3 Students
These classes are a great stepping stone to full private lessons, whilst still promoting social interaction and group singing. Each student learns a solo song, whilst the other two students sing backing vocals. The class will also learn a combined group song.
Group Keyboard and Guitar Lessons – 45 minutes – Maximum 3 Students
Our group instrumental classes are a const effective entry point for most budding musicians. Our carefully designed curriculum allows us to cater to each student’s unique ability level by layering the content into various levels. This allows students to play together harmoniously while individually engaging with material suited to their skill level.
