We are pleased to announce three new faculty appointments for 2010 – 2011.  We are welcoming the return of  Sarah Westwick to our DCMS faculty.  Sarah teaches violin / viola and for fall 2010 will be offering classes in Susuki Violin and a Colourstrings program for young children based on the traditions and teachings of Carl Orff , Dalcroze and Kodaly.  Both of the these programs  will be on Mondays at the school.   Sarah taught at our school for many years through the 1990’s and we welcome her return.  You can find more information on these programs under the Programs tab at the top of the page.

Pianist Andrea Larsen will also be rejoining our faculty and will be offering piano instruction for us at the school on Saturdays.
