The Oberlin Community Music School has announced the launch of two exciting new programs for guitar enthusiasts: the Guitar Ensemble and the Chamber Music program. These classes, designed for students in grades 6 and above, as well as adults, offer a unique opportunity to learn and perform chamber music under the tutelage of a master teacher.

The Guitar Ensemble class, held once a week for an hour, focuses on group learning, with a strong emphasis on improving listening, musicianship, and performance practice skills. Prior experience with note reading on the guitar is necessary for this class, which covers both written music and improvisation and composition. The written music explored spans various eras and genres, providing a rich and diverse learning experience.

For those seeking a more flexible learning environment, the Chamber Music program offers a 10-week session. Small chamber groups of 2-5 students will be formed, allowing for a more personalised learning experience. This program focuses on sight-reading, rhythmic precision, communication, and listening skills, preparing students for performances both within the class and at public events.

One of the highlights of these programs is the weekly lessons from a master teacher of chamber music. These lessons ensure a high standard of instruction and help students to progress rapidly.

The Chamber Music program does not require prior experience with note reading on the guitar, making it accessible to a wider range of students. Both programs will culminate in a chamber music concert, a public event where students can showcase their newfound skills.

The chamber music concerts will be held in various venues around Oberlin, providing a memorable and exciting performance experience for students. The Guitar Ensemble class will also perform in public at least once during the semester.

To join the Guitar Ensemble and Chamber Music programs, potential students should first check their eligibility, ensuring they meet the age and grade requirements. Next, they should visit the school's website for specific information about the programs, including any application deadlines and requirements.

For more detailed information, prospective students are encouraged to contact the Oberlin Community Music School directly via phone or email. Some programs may require an audition to assess skill level and ensure proper placement within the ensemble. Once accepted, students will need to complete any necessary registration forms and pay associated fees. After completing the registration process, they should receive confirmation of their enrollment in the program.

With these new programs, the Oberlin Community Music School continues to provide high-quality music education to the community, fostering a love for music and nurturing the talents of its students.
