Our popular Broadway Obsession classes use great musical theater pieces as a gateway to teaching students all aspects of performance.
Students will learn Hamilton scenes, songs, and choreography as they explore and enjoy their mutual “obsession” for this groundbreaking work.
Even students who may not be familiar with Hamilton will LOVE this class.
History is happening, so don’t throw away your shot to do a deep dive into all things Alex. Just you wait!

Upright bass, also called string bass or double bass, is a member of the orchestra family. Just as often, however, it appears in jazz, bluegrass, folk, and other genres. With a large hollow body and 4 thick strings, the tones produced by the upright bass are low and rich. The instrument is capable of long, expressive tones when played with a bow; and short, percussive tones when plucked with the strings. String bass is a dynamic and impressive instrument to play!
The oboe is a woodwind and a member of the double-reed family. It is played by blowing air through the reed, attached at the top of the instrument. The reed consists of two very thin pieces of cane, pressed together with a small opening to allow air to pass through. The sound can be high in pitch, but it has a variety of colorful tones, from bright and piercing to low and mysterious.
