Class Description and Performances

Intro to Rock is a first experience playing or singing in a rock band!  Classes meet weekly for 50 minutes.  The band will learn essential skills needed to play in a rock band, along with one or more songs from the current MTC Rock Song List (includes modern and classic rock songs). 

The band performs at MTC's Ensemble Night.  The performance is one or two songs depending on number of participating bands.  See enrollment form for performance dates and times.

Our rock instructors strive to develop skills, talent, confidence, and musicianship.  Students should practice at home, arrive prepared for each rehearsal, keep their instruments in well-maintained condition, and exhibit mature behavior.
