Here are two wonderful opportunities to share your music for a cause and also to fulfill your “Music for Good” studio requirement!

Thanksgiving Playathon

Saturday, November 23 at First Parish Norwell

My slots are 10 – 10:30 a.m. OR 10:30 – 11 a.m.

AND

Coffeehouse Fundraiser

Saturday, December 7 at First Parish Scituate

from 10:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.

Holiday Fairs will be going on at both churches!

More info coming, but please save one or BOTH dates to play. It’s an easy, casual way to perform, with the money raised going to Father Bill’s, Pine Street Inn and Rosie’s Place for all the great work they do!

The week of Monday, October 14 (Columbus Day) will be our first of three GROUP CLASS weeks for this year.  Group classes are held in place of private lessons for this week.  Occasionally, a private lesson will also be held as a make-up for some other date. Please choose from the classes below for ALL students and also note that ALL private lessons will be held on THURSDAY (October 17) as a make-up in advance for Thanksgiving.

Note: You can now register using the MyMusicStaff online sign-up!

At Alison S. Barr Music Associates, we value each and every student as a completely unique individual. The curriculum is custom-tailored for each child or adult’s learning style, pace, strengths and interests, while still striving to promote all the tenets of mastery at the piano. This year, we’ll focus on helping students identify what makes them unique and how that uniqueness comes out in musical expression. This means that repertoire will be chosen with student input in mind. Students will be encouraged to dig deep inside themselves to express their own experience and emotions.

We’ll also continue “Music for Good,” the social action component of our curriculum, where students are asked to offer their music to help brighten and improve their community and the people in it!

Please download the following for exciting and important information as we start off our year! This will also be available in the studio!

You can now reschedule the occasional lesson on-line without emailing!! 

We’ve had such positive feedback so far!  Each parent (one parent her family) has received an email on how to get set up.  You can also download the instruction using the “Download” below!

I know this will help everything flow better and it’s so exciting to know that you have options!
