Other Opportunities
Group Classes
Available for violin, viola, cello, piano, flute, voice.
Group performance classes meet weekly to work on technical skill development, repertoire review, and musical style in a motivational setting. Students are placed in a class according to ability level at the beginning of the school year, and remain in this class throughout the year. Group classes give the student the opportunity to work with various teachers at the School since the teacher of the group class may not be the child’s regular lesson teacher.
Orchestras
Available for violin, viola, cello, bass, piano, flute, harp.
The orchestra experience provided by the Preucil School is an essential companion to the student’s weekly lesson and integral part of our comprehensive musical training. It motivates students as they expand their technical, reading, and musical skills; allowing the student to expand their musical experience and fellowship.
Chamber Music
Available for violin, viola, cello, bass, piano, flute, harp, voice.
Chamber music is a form of classical music written for a small group of instruments that can be performed in a palace chamber or other intimate setting. Ensembles range in size from two to eight, typically without solo performance, one performer to a part. The Preucil School offers many chamber opportunities, each allowing students the opportunity for music and social collaboration.
Performance Opportunities
Available for violin, viola, cello, bass, piano, flute, harp, voice.
The Preucil School schedules a wide array of recital and concerts each year, many based on achievement of a Suzuki curriculum landmark. These opportunities allow the performer to master performance requirements, gain confidence and motivate fellow students and audience members.
Certificate Program
Available for violin, viola, cello, bass, piano, flute, harp.
The Certificate Program challenges each student to read, write, and hear the language of music with a high level of literacy. This tuition-free program for high school students includes intensive study in theory and musicianship, keyboard, and chamber music in addition to regular lessons and orchestra membership.
Master Classes
Available for violin, viola, cello, bass, piano, flute, harp, voice.
At times when nationally recognized artists visit the Iowa City area, the Preucil School offers its students the opportunity to experience master classes. In a master class, a respected artist works with one student or a small group, providing a learning opportunity for performers and observers.
Flute Group Classes
Flute students may participate in Preucil orchestras at the recommendation of their teacher and are placed into an appropriate ensemble. Many standard works for string orchestra also include one wind (flute or oboe) and there is now a good amount of student orchestra literature with the same instrumentation.
