Lessons and Classes
Join The Music Class® this Summer!
TMC® is an award-winning class for parents/guardians and children ages newborn through age 4. This class is based in child development research and uses that information to expose students to a wide variety of sounds, musical styles, and build confidence in music and music-making! It is interactive and uses many fun songs and rhymes from many cultures. In class we will sing, dance, and play lots of fun instruments. It is expected that parents/guardians participate in class and use the app or songbook included with fees at home as homework. This helps kids engage more and make it more meaningful for them.

The Music Class® Mixed Ages
Join Larissa West for some music mini camps in June! These camps are designed to give a one-month trial for piano and flute lessons. You only pay for and commit to one month (no free trial). Flutes will have a rental fee for instruments (Toot and jFlute) or the option to buy. Pianos will be provided in-class only. These lessons are for parents who have children that have expressed interest in music lessons, but are just not sure if their child will be dedicated enough. This month of lessons will walk you through a low stress series of lessons with a mini recital at the end. They are designed with minimal homework, and super fun activities to start to learn flute or piano. Once the month is complete you have the option to sign up for a summer of lessons or I can touch base with you again in the fall. This is a great opportunity to see if your child (and you) are ready for music lessons. Not quite ready? Sign up for a month of fall lessons! I hope to see you there!
Flutes Tuesdays June 3 - June 24 ages 4-6 4:30-5:00 and ages 7-9 5:15-6:00
Piano Thursdays June 5 - June 26 ages 4-6 4:30-5:00 and ages 7-9 5:15-6:00
Mini Music Camps
Join anytime! New location coming soon. Please reach out to schedule a time! Runs through summer and the school year. Classes are on Thursdays for ages 4-6 at 4:30-5:00 and ages 7-9 at 5:00-5:45. Held at First Congregational Church of Berlin. To sign up for this class, please use the link below to send me an email. I currently don't have a registration link for this class.
Group Piano Lessons
Join me to gain more confidence in making sound, reading music, and maybe taking solos or auditions (no pressure). I could turn these into group classes easily if you and a few friends are interested. In group classes we build more of a community aspect helping each other and giving feedback. We combine solo flute pieces, band music, and flute choir music. A flute choir is just a bunch of flutes on different parts playing together like a flutes only band.
Group Flute Lessons
The fall session of The Music Class® Big Kids is being scheduled. This is for kids and parents/guardians ages 4-6. If you're interested in joining, please reach out. Class day/time is still TBD. This class will run from September through November and will cost $200 for the 10-week sessions. Tuition includes app access and physical songbook.
Saturdays September 13 - November 15 11:00-11:45 @ Barre Congregational Church
