WHAT IS PRIVATE ORGAN INSTRUCTION?

Extra fee: $25 OR $40
These are individualized 25–minute or 50–minute organ lessons, which give you an excellent opportunity to receive help in hymn or organ certification, or in any area of organ playing. Limited practice times and choice of instruments will be available throughout the workshop. Play hymns or your choice of organ repertoire you have prepared for your instructor, who will comment on your preparation and provide guidance for the following year’s study.

WHAT ARE INSTRUCTION PLACEMENT AUDITIONS?

Extra fee: $10
Unsure about your level of organ ability? Find out by attending a 10–minute session with an instructor. Play a well–prepared hymn and/or a piece from the organ literature, and the instructor will recommend the organ instruction level that is more appropriate for you.

HOW CAN I SIGN UP FOR PRIVATE ORGAN INSTRUCTION OR PLACEMENT AUDITIONS?

Sign up for private instruction or placement auditions when you register, or add the option anytime before July 27. If you do not have access to the Internet, you can call toll free (877) 221–6716 to add these options.
