About Band Basics

At Little Dell Music Studio, we believe that music is meant to be shared with others.

Band Basics is our answer to the need for a beginner performance group without the pressure of an impending performance. 

Who is this class for?
• Band Basics is open to all students aged 7-17 who are totally new to music (suggested 6-12 months of lessons before joining)

How does it work?
• Your student will attend weekly 55 minutes rehearsals lead by a professional musician and music educator • Your child will be assigned a part to play within the ensemble, to learn with their private teacher and practice with the group. 

Will there be a performance?
• There are no planned performances for Band Basics. 

When can my child start Little Dell Rock Band (themed student band)?
• While this varies from student to student, we have a comprehensive list of benchmark goals that we expect students to have achieved before graduating into our intermediate performance group.
• The time spent in Band Basics, depending on age and commitment level, could be as little as 1 session and as many as 3 or 4.
