The New Horizons Music Program is an exciting opportunity for adults to learn to play a band instrument, rediscover long-forgotten skills, or for experienced players who wish to advance their skills.

Unique to this program, we emphasize learning through active music-making. New Horizons accommodates those who want to try something new, or begin polishing skills that might be a bit rusty.

Teachers instruct in a relaxed, non-threatening and enjoyable atmosphere.
