Music Guidance Survey/Instrument Fitting
The Music Guidance Survey is a test to determine your child’s musical aptitude. The Instrument Fitting is a time for your child to see and play all the different instruments that are available under the direction of trained personnel. With the information gathered at the Music Guidance Survey and Instrument Fitting, we are better able to determine what instrument your child would enjoy playing based on their aptitudes, abilities, and desire.
