Ensembles
There's no "I" in band -- the best way to become a better player is to play nice with others. The ensemble class gives you opportunities to play with other people on a regular basis.
To get the most out of the class, you'll need to be able to play your instrument at an intermediate level. For folks who have taken our core guitar programs - you'll fit right in most ensembles once you've taken Guitar 2 Repertoire. After that, the sky is the limit.
Most ensemble classes conclude with a public performance like this one featured to the right.
Drummers are encouraged to bring their own cymbals and snare. Vocalists are encouraged to bring their own microphone and microphone stand. Electric Guitar players are to bring a small, 10 Watt practice amp. Banjo players are encouraged to bring tuners.
