If you are rekindling your love of an old instrument, consider why you paused in the first place. Too busy? There is no rule that says lessons need to be a certain length or frequency, and we want to make sure scheduling is accessible to everyone. No the right instrument or music style? We encourage all students to try as many instruments and instructors as they want until they find what is the right fit for them. We also offer inexpensive student instrument rentals so you can try different instruments without the big investment. Lessons too expensive? The Shedd offers need-based financial aid to ensure money is not a barrier to any student. We also offer semi-private lessons so you can split the lesson with a friend or family member, and flexible scheduling that can help music lessons fit into any budget. Lessons are open to students of any age an d experience level.

Whether you want to sing onstage for an audience, or just with a group of friends, The Shedd has something for you! Our vocal department head, Amy Adams, leads two singing groups each term, both of which are specifically tailored for a different kind of singer. Come sign the masterworks with The Shedd Choral Society (Tues 6:30-8:00) and perform for the public at The Shedd each term! If you are less inclined to sing for an audience, The Shedd Signing Club (Wed 4:30-5:30) might be a great fit for you! Amy uses pieces from the American Music Songbook, along with Musical Theatre standards to teach the singing club members the fundamentals of singing while having a ton of fun along the way!

We are happy to announce our 2024-25 Magical Moombah season starts in September with Monster Madness!. Join the Moombahteers all throughout the school year as their adventures teach them about language and silly words in That's Nonsense!, take them back in the past in Time Travelers!, and into the storybooks in Tall Tales & Silly Stuff!. Each Magical Moombah show has Thursday and Friday school performances where school groups can attend, along with two performances on Saturday, with a special Saturday Moombah Music Box session in between. Audience members are encouraged to dress up and join in all the fun by joining us onstage to tell jokes, participate in contests, sing, and dance!!!
