GROUP CLASSES

WILLDEBIETZ BLUES ENSEMBLE

This ensemble, suitable for beginner to intermediate learners, leads students through the history, social significance, theory, technique, composition, and performance of the blues genre. 

​

Participants in this class learn to play classic blues standards and compose their own 12-bar blues pieces. They perform not only at our end-of-semester recitals, but in the community as well!

​

Enrollment in private lessons at Willdebietz Music Conservatory is required for participation.

MUSIC THEORY AND SONGWRITING

Whether you want to compose a symphony or a radio hit, our Music Theory and Songwriting class will get you there. Using fresh, up-to-date curriculum, we examine components of composition such as form, melody, harmony, rhythm, and counterpoint, as well as the musicianship needed to carry out your vision.

​

**This group class is currently and temporarily being offered as a one-on-one class due to health and safety restrictions**

RHYTHMIC STUDIES

This class is geared toward non-drummers who would like to more fully grasp the vast and exciting world of rhythm, or percussionists who would like to take their rhythmic theory to the next level. 

​

Our Rhythmic Studies class covers all aspects of subdivision, polyrhythm and polymeter, world rhythms, and more.

​

Participants will perform at the end-of-semester recitals and may have opportunities to perform throughout the community as well.
