The School of Music and Art is delighted to offer Viola Lessons tailored for students of all ages and abilities. The viola, known for its rich and warm tone, sits beautifully between the violin and cello in the string family and serves as a vital component of both chamber groups and orchestras. Our program focuses on developing technical proficiency, musicality, and a deep understanding of repertoire ranging from baroque to contemporary.
Our viola curriculum is meticulously designed to cover all aspects of viola playing, including posture, bowing techniques, and finger placement. We emphasize reading music, understanding harmony, and developing the expressive capabilities unique to the viola. Lessons are structured to progress in complexity, catering to the individual pace and interests of each student, ensuring a rounded and fulfilling musical education.
For students interested in exploring the broader string family, we provide seamless integration with Violin and Cello lessons. This holistic approach not only enhances the musical versatility of our students but also deepens their appreciation of string music. Knowledge and skills gained from viola lessons are complementary to learning other string instruments, offering students a well-rounded perspective on string performance.
Students of the viola will have numerous opportunities to perform solo and as part of ensembles. Our school regularly participates in concerts, recitals, and competitions, providing a platform for students to showcase their skills and gain confidence. Performance is a key component of our educational philosophy, encouraging students to apply their skills in real-world settings and to experience the joy and teamwork of making music with others.
Each student receives personalized instruction aimed at fostering individual growth and meeting personal musical goals. Our experienced instructors are passionate about music and dedicated to nurturing students’ abilities and interests. They provide supportive, one-on-one guidance, tailored to each student’s learning style and progress rate.
