Hello Friends of Parlando,   

 

Our fall semester is off to a great start - thank you for being with us as we "share the language of music and the arts" throughout our community!  In addition to our core programming and private lessons, we have a number of exciting opportunities coming up - many of which are FREE!

 

 

PIANOS FOR SALE - and One for Free!
  • We have a Wurlitzer console piano valued at $500 that we are giving away.  It was donated for us to place in a family's home.  If you would like it to be in your home, please let me know!
  • We have a 1971 Story & Clark console piano valued at $650 that we are selling for $500 or best offer.  Please contact me if you would like more information!
  • One of our Piano Faculty members, Leslie Ann Leddy, is selling her digital piano.  It's a Kawai Concert Performer (CP137).  Please contact Leslie Ann (leslieannleddy@gmail.com) directly for more information!

RECREATIONAL MUSIC MAKING (RMM)
Classes for Adults - Piano AND Guitar!

Over the last year we have had great success with our RMM classes for adult pianists.  These classes are a wonderful opportunity to learn or relearn piano in a low-pressure, supportive environment.  This fall we are also offering an RMM class for adult guitarists.  If you are interested or would like more information, please contact Parlando's Education Director, Emily Book McGree (emily@parlando.org).

ALL-STATE BOOT CAMP - FREE!
We are offering a FREE "All-State Boot Camp" for 11th and 12th graders preparing for All-State Choir.  This class is FREE for any and all interested students - whether they study at Parlando or not.  While attendance is free, you must reserve a spot.  Please pass along this information and link to anyone who might be interested:

INTERESTED IN MAJORING IN MUSIC?
Are you or someone you know thinking about majoring in music?  If so, please come to a FREE seminar sponsored by Parlando, the Dairy Center, MajoringInMusic.com and the Rocky Mountain Center for Musical Arts on Tuesday, September 11th at the Dairy Center's Carsen Theatre from 7 to 8:30pm.  A panel of current music majors and college admission staff will offer information, insights and great tips for majoring in any area of music (vocal, instrumental, music business, music therapy, popular music, etc.).  All are welcome including students, family members, music teachers and school counselors.  Please contact Barbra at MajoringInMusic.com for more information: 303.993.5541 or barbra@majoringinmusic.com.

Please let me know if you have any questions.  We look forward to working with you throughout another busy fall semester!
