	Rock Band This is an exciting and unique program offered by the London Music Conservatory! Students of all ages and levels, who are currently studying any instrument (with us or elsewhere), can join our rock band program. Taught in a fun group environment, students learn rock songs while improving their rhythm and developing their musical ear. The students learn some rock history, about song structures and arrangements, and how to properly use and care for band equipment. Each rock band session ends with performance opportunities at a recital, our rock band showcase or a band competition.
	Choir This is a fun program for beginning and experienced singers alike! The London Music Conservatory Chorus is open to music students and community members of all ages who love to sing. During each session, members learn a variety of music and perform at local concerts, competitions and events.

Free Trial Lesson:

The London Music Conservatory offers a free introductory half hour lesson to any prospective student who may be interested in studying an instrument. Our trial lesson will allow you to meet some of our staff, visit the studio, and have your questions answered in person. A qualified, experienced teacher will assess a child's readiness and interest for learning music, and this gives parents a chance to see how their son or daughter would react in a private lesson. For those with a musical background, the trial lesson will help our staff assess the level at which to resume studies, and design a program of learning best suited to the individual.Our free trial lessons are scheduled by appointment, so please contact us to arrange a convenient time!

Lessons:

The London Music Conservatory is open on a year-round basis, and schedules private lessons for 30 minutes or one hour weekly. Our lessons are open to students of all ages and abilities. Our qualified teachers adapt their teaching styles to fit the needs of each individual student, so every student can successfully progress at his/her own rate. Students can follow a graded course of study and prepare for examinations, as well as incorporate many styles of music into their lessons based on their interests, including classical, folk, opera, rock, blues, jazz, Broadway, and pop.

Recitals:

Public performance is an important aspect of learning to play a musical instrument. The London Music Conservatory organizes two recitals a year, and we encourage as many students as possible to perform. Our recitals are meant to encourage self expression and build self-confidence. Even our youngest and newest students are very welcome to demonstrate what they have learned, in a most welcoming and relaxed atmosphere.

Competitions:

For those students of a competitive nature, we encourage participation in music competitions held in cities across South-western Ontario throughout the year, including the Kiwanis Music Festival of London, and the Forest City Music Festival. These festivals provide our students with valuable opportunities to prepare material for public performance and adjudication.
