Agenda for February 13 Meeting 2
FREE beginning-to-intermediate double reed group class
The Jackson Symphony Music Academy is launching a FREE beginning-to-intermediate double reed group class in Jackson, TN.
The target audience for this group is students who already play an instrument but are interested in playing bassoon or oboe. Younger students who could use individual attention are also encouraged to participate.
Classes will meet on Monday nights at Concordia Lutheran Church in Jackson, TN (637 Wallace Rd, Jackson, TN 38305) from 6:15 – 7:15 pm.
