students using time-tested, traditional methods. Reading notes, counting, and
proper fingering are essential skills that all of our students learn. Our piano

pop, giving students the option to explore all types of music.

Drum Lessons

The Beat.  All music starts with a beat, with a rhythm.  Drummers are the
masters of this art.  Drum students learn counting and tempo, how to handle
sticks, and how to read and create drum music.  Our studios are outfitted with
a full drum set, pads, and the ability to play with tracks (playing along with
recorded music.)  We teach all styles of music. Our instructors are also well-
versed in Marching Band and other auditions or contests held throughout the
public school band programs.


Private Drum Lessons begin at age 5.

Violin

The violin is often compared to the beauty of the human voice through its tone
and the emotion it conveys. It is a very popular instrument extending from the
traditional symphonic orchestra to contemporary rock bands. At HGS Music,
our teachers use traditional methods to teach students proper bow and finger
techniques. As students progress, they are offered the opportunity to play in
many styles including classical, jazz, fiddle, and contemporary.


Private Violin Lessons begin at age 5.

Ukulele Lessons

Yes, the ukulele is as much fun as it looks!  It is a great instrument to
introduce students to string instruments, but it is also a terrific stand-alone
instrument.  Ukulele students learn to read music and tablature, how to play
chords, and different strumming techniques.  The uke is an ideal sing-a-long
instrument.  A great string instrument for students of all of ages.


Private Ukulele Lessons begin at age 5.

Saxophone Lessons

Our instructors teach reading music, breathing technique, and the importance
of proper embouchure (using the mouthpiece.)  We teach keys and scales,
and improvisation.  Saxophone is popular in all styles of music as well as
school bands!


Private Saxophone Lessons begin at age 10.



Cello Lessons
Cello is the ultimate classical instrument, capable of producing soaring melodic highs and deep, resonant lows. Like fine wine, its sound matures over time—the more you play, the richer and more refined the tone becomes. Students will progress from learning basic finger positions to developing advanced techniques, such as mastering fourth position, which enhances dexterity. We will strengthen memorization through challenging music as well.

Private Cello Lessons begin at age 8.
