Taking Music Lessons to the Next Level
LESSONS BEGIN TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 1st! REGISTRATION 4PM-7PM
The only program of its kind in the River City, the Richmond Youth Jazz Guild is redefining music instruction through a Jazz lens. Our focus is on developing young musicians through ensemble instruction, improvisation and apprenticeship. Improvisation—the foundation of jazz —offers many opportunities for spontaneous creative expression. This aspect of music education is often neglected in traditional school music programs. Enroll your young musician...it’s easy and affordable!
