About

EXPECT MORE
Unlike other music schools and studios, studying music at CHSMA includes more than just a weekly private lesson. We have developed a comprehensive program of music education that expands musical possibilities for students of all ages and interests. Our all-inclusive fee covers the following:

MORE THAN JUST LESSONS:
Individual lessons where the learning style, personality and individual goals of each student is addressed by the instructor, and where gaining technical skill is balanced with the enjoyment of music.
Special Studio Classes where students learn to perform in front of others, get feedback from our faculty and are exposed to many different styles and elements of music.

MORE SPECIAL EVENTS:
Workshops in related musical and performing areas which expose students to additional information and expanded understanding of the musical arts
Master classes where outside experts and performers share their expertise and experience with our students
Performing opportunities, both formal and informal, in a variety of venues
Special concerts with faculty and others performing

MORE COMMUNITY & SCHOOL OUTREACH:
Seasonal visits to local retirement communities and hospitals to bring them music
Summer musical performances to raise money for the Ronald McDonald House of CH, our designated local charity
CHSMA instructor visits to local public schools to assist music ensemble teachers and students and to do special workshops
Special workshops and programs are held to help students prepare for auditions for school activities such as Honor’s Chorus, Band & Orchestra, Governor’s School, school ensembles and musical theater productions.
