Suzuki Violin Group Classes (both locations!)
We are now offering Suzuki Violin Group Classes at both our Humboldt Park and West Rogers Park Studios! They are:
Suzuki Violin Foundations (Pre-Twinkle & Twinkle) - FREE to Music House Outreach and Private Lesson students; Both Studios

Suzuki Violin Book 2 Graduation Track - Humboldt Park Studio only (please email us if you are a West Rogers Park student interested in this class)
Suzuki Group Classes are a key component of the Suzuki Method! Dr. Suzuki said “A child does not learn the native tongue only by daily one-to-one training but smoothly and rapidly learns it through talking with others” (Where Love Is Deep).
In Suzuki Group Violin Classes, students work on solidifying foundational skills, while also developing new technique and preparing for new pieces!
Ukulele Group Class - Now for all first year students at Humboldt Park Studio!
Music House is excited to offer FREE weekend group ukulele classes that focus on the Suzukulele repertoire and skills for the first year student. All Private Lesson or Outreach first-year ukulele students are invited to join!

We are excited to expand our Orchestra to our West Rogers Park Studio, in addition to are already-established Orchestra at Humboldt Park!
The Music House Orchestra Program explores a large variety of repertoire, including Pop, Pop-Classical, selections from the Musical Theater Production for Pit Orchestra, and much more. The main focus of our orchestra program is on creating musical friendships, growing as a musician and sight reader, and participating in community-based performances in the winter and spring.
