Aravon Music
Tuition
Class recorder lessons are given to all children from first to third class. The classes are small and provide pupils with the opportunity to learn to read music as well as introducing them to other instruments and encouraging the enjoyment of music generally.
Aravon offers individual and group tuition on a broad range of instruments including:
- piano
- violin
- viola
- cello
- guitar
- flute
- oboe
- clarinet
- saxophone
- recorder
- drums
A child does not have to own an instrument in order to learn to play it as the school runs a rental scheme through which, for a nominal amount, an instrument may be rented for a year. All money collected through this scheme is reinvested in the music department and is used to purchase more instruments.
The music staff at Aravon is made up of dedicated professionals who work at the very core of Ireland's musical life, whose own love of music nurtures a spirit of enjoyment in their students.
Individual music lessons, whether instrumental or vocal, are of thirty minutes duration. Pupils are provided with a practice book which is updated on a weekly basis, enabling parents to keep track of their child’s progress. Aravon strongly encourages the participation of parents in the musical development of their children.
Repeatedly excelling at Music Festivals the high standards achieved by the Aravon Choir and Orchestra speak for themselves.
