Because we are situated in one of the cultural capitals of the world, we have access to exceptional teachers who provide the best possible learning experiences. There are three different parts to our program, each designed to meet specific students’ needs: Available to Lower School students only, there is the Lower School String Program which offers 24 half hour private lessons on either violin or viola during the school day in addition to a Lower School String Ensemble which meets after school hours. Available to Middle School Students, there are two after school 10 week ensemble classes, one in West African Drumming, Singing and Dancing (also open to Upper School students, faculty and parents) and one which is a Middle School (only) Jazz Workshop. Available to Dwight-Englewood students in all grades is the Private Music Lessons Program which offers 45 minute private lessons on each of the orchestral instruments, piano, voice, set drums (and percussion), saxophone, harp, classical and electric guitar as well as electric and upright bass. The curriculum for this program includes 27 private lessons, one master-class. (Hour long lessons may be possible by special arrangement.)
