Oregon City Music academy offers Mandolin Lessons
Oregon City Music academy offers Mandolin Lessons for kids. We offer classical training as well as the Suzuki Method. The Suzuki method is based on his approach that musical ability is not an inborn talent but an ability that can be developed. Any child, who is professionally trained, can develop musical ability, just as all children develop the ability to speak their mother tongue. The potential of every child is unlimited.
Mandolin is the Perfect Instrument to Learn
The mandolin is a great instrument for beginners. It is a relatively easy instrument to learn as it has fewer strings compared to many other stringed instruments, such as guitar and violin. This makes reading tablature much easier. The mandolin improves concentration and memory. When you play the mandolin, there are certain parts of your brain that become stimulated, therefore affecting your muscle and cognitive function and memory. The mandolin is also lightweight and compact so you can practice it anywhere. It is also a relatively quiet instrument, so it can be practiced without reverberating around the house. Once your child learns how to play the mandolin, learning how to play other instruments, especially stringed ones, will be comparatively straightforward.
What to Expect on your First Lesson
Your instructor will get to know your child. We will talk about goals musical preferences and interests. Then we help them become familiar with their ukulele.
