NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY!
Instrument provided!
The Adult Beginning Violin Class is a GREAT opportunity to explore learning an instrument, with no pressure or expectations. Just 5 lessons, then you decide if it is right for you.
The Adult Beginning Violin Class, is for true beginners interested in “trying out” an instrument. The ever patient and enthusiastic Michelle Liechti will lead this adult class on Thursdays, from 9:30-11 am, starting May 1, at the BMC. Tuition for 5 sessions is $50 and loaner violins are available.
In March, the Brattleboro Music Center began offering a new series of adult education programs during the day. The adult daytime series launches with monthly music appreciation gatherings, a chorus for seniors, and a beginning adult violin class.
The launch of the BMC’s new adult daytime track is a direct response to the region’s decidedly older adult population, and the mounting evidence that engagement in music as we age has significant positive health benefits.
The reported benefits of involvement in music are wide ranging and broadly include elevating mood, relieving pain, reducing stress, improving long-term memory, create a sense of well-being, stimulating positive interactions, facilitating cognitive function, coordinating motor movements and boosting the immune system.
The developmental benefits of music study for children have been well documented for many years, but now significant findings are also available on the importance of music to our well being throughout our lives and especially as we age.
The BMC’s new adult daytime programs are structured for maximum accessibility, they require no previous musical experience to participate; and tuitions range between $5 and $10 per session.
