About the Kid's class:
​
Calling all music-makers!
Musicianship is all the extra skills that go into singing: good dynamics, phrasing, rhythm, and intonation… and it’s time to get to work!
Get ready for an interactive class that will include children’s songs and games designed with developing their musicianship in mind. Meg will lead students through a discovery of the basics of rhythm and melody, giving them all they need to succeed as they grow through their musical journey -
which is only getting started!

About the Adult's class:
You know the words, you know the notes, now let’s dig deeper.
Musicianship is everything that enhances your style: dynamics, phrasing, rhythm, and intonation. Join Meg for a class delving into exactly what that means and how you can practice good musicianship on your own to bring more to the table every practice session, lesson, and performance.
In this class you’ll learn tools that you can take into every song you work on and speed up the process of learning notes and rhythms through quick activities to stimulate all those musical juices in your brain.
