Dear Hawks,

Classes are underway and we are so excited to be playing music in our orchestra room all day long, and it’s been great getting to know all of our new members.  We have many new things to go over at our parent meeting/welcome concert, so it’s a great meeting to attend for new members as well as returning members.  Please make every effort to attend.  Paper copies of the annual forms will be available at the meeting.  The booster club will also be on hand to collect the annual orchestra fee, and student members will receive a bonus for attending.

Private Lessons

Please fill out the following form to sign your student up for private lessons:

Private lessons are an essential component of musical and instrumental development.  Typically a private teacher will give your student an individual lesson in a private lesson room during class.  This allows for individual, focused attention to the needs of the student, allowing for them to learn the most advanced solo material, leading to the strongest and most consistent progress as a musician and musical athlete.  Lessons also give your student the greatest chance at higher musical achievement, such as placement in the All-Region Orchestra, and/or high achievement at the Solo & Ensemble Festival.

Some of the advantages of taking private lessons are:

Individualized instruction and attention to the specific needs of the student.

Unique solo music not available in class.

Unique music skills not available in class.

Advanced repertoire for Solo & Ensemble festivals.

Advanced skill and repertoire for All-Region and All-State auditions.

Our lesson teachers are highly qualified and experienced.  In addition to teaching, they regularly perform as professional musicians throughout the metroplex and beyond.  Their schedules may be extremely limited so lessons will be arranged on a first come/first served basis.  Private lesson scholarships are also available to students who are interested and qualified.

Lessons are highly encouraged for all members of the orchestra.  Our focus with the Hebron Orchestra is individual progress combined with team achievement.  Please feel free to contact me with any questions about our private lesson program.

We’re looking forward to seeing you all at our events next week!  Please let us know if you have any questions or if we can help with anything.
