Private Lesson Instructors
Welcome all Elementary, Jr. High and High School families. The following is a list of professional private lesson instructors. Private instruction from a professional is the best way to improve students' musical ability and insure proper methods and techniques for instrument play.
Instrument Repair
Need to get that instrument repaired and don't know where to turn. The following is a list of businesses that have been supporters of the Davis music programs. The businesses are listed in alphabetical order, you will need to ask around or simply contact the businesses and decide for yourself what might be the best route for your family. Our goal is to just give a list of options (a starting place) for families, so they can proceed to getting instruments fixed and in working order. Remember if it a school instrument that breaks down, let your director know of the problem and they will make arrangements for having the school horn repaired.
