We DO have class on October 10 (Columbus Day)!
Grace Notes Homeschool Conservatory provides group musical instruction on several levels in Concert Bands, Jazz Band, Pep Band, Choruses, Guitar, Recorders, Strings, Orchestra, and Art. As God allows us to prosper, we hope to add more classes!
We work with students from the earliest beginner level (students who do not as yet read music or even know which end of the instrument to blow into!) up through more advanced students. We help students progress to playing increasingly complex and challenging music, exploring a variety of musical styles, from classical, sacred, hymns, and praise music, to marches, modern, swing, and jazz!
We provide opportunities for students to perform and stretch their level of proficiency as they audition for chairs and All-State in higher level groups, and to grow in leadership abilities, as older and more experienced students may assist the directors as mentors to younger students.
Our directors are all chosen on the basis of their Christian faith and musical experience, and all are well qualified to lead the classes they instruct.
Our students are required to have a high level of personal responsibility by maintaining a regular home practice schedule, attending weekly classes, and performing in Winter and Spring Concerts, as well as in various special performances throughout the area. Students may go on to perform in their church’s orchestra and/or Praise Band, local Youth and Adult Symphonies.
We currently rehearse Mondays at Calvary Baptist Church, located on Lawrenceville Hwy. (Hwy. 29) near downtown Lilburn, conveniently located for families in Gwinnett, Dekalb, Rockdale, Hall, Barrow, and north Fulton counties.
