For over 40 years, students of The Music School have had a tradition of performing an annual Spring Musical. While sheltering in place, our dedicated students and teachers rehearsed online, and ultimately adapted the stage production into a movie musical. Teachers filmed the students' dialogue in Zoom, parents filmed their children singing and dancing along with teacher recordings at home, and our staff edited the sound and video. Tonight we will share the finished product with our students and families! Congratulations to the cast of "Look in a Book!" We are so proud of you and can't wait to celebrate with you tonight!

Online classes start this week! We can't wait to see you! Registration is still open at https://themusicschool.org/courses/

The Music School will be closed Monday September 7th for Labor Day. More than ever, we wish to thank the teachers, doctors, nurses, healthcare workers, firefighters, law enforcement, custodians, maintenance workers, farmers, agricultural workers, grocery store employees, postal and delivery workers, and all the wonderful people dedicated to taking care of our community.

Time to sign up! Online lessons and classes for students of all ages! Check out our updated schedule: https://themusicschool.org/courses/ and contact us today!

Wednesday nights are the best nights, because Nick Patton and Jo Smith Nilsson host The Music School's Sing-Along Series from 6:30-7:30 and it is a BLAST! Each week of the summer is themed, and tonight is Movie Night, so we will be singing many of our movie favorites, using a combination of sheet music and karaoke tracks so that we can all belt along from home. If you are shy about singing, good news! None of us can hear you because our microphones are all muted If you are N...OT shy about singing, make sure the neighbors can hear you! If you are interested, sign up at www.themusicschool.org/summer Registration closes at 5 PM each Wednesday night.
