Every year in July you can try out the Platform C instruments and lessons during the Trial Class Days. You can sign up for these days in June using the registration form on the website.
In addition, there is an Open Day at the beginning of the school year. Various viewing lessons and presentations can then be seen and experienced. Also, recitals and other performances give a good impression of the possibilities. Keep an eye on the agenda.

Throughout the course year, for year-long courses without a waiting list, a trial lesson may be taken upon request. There are no trial lessons for short courses.

In June, the teachers review which new students can be placed for the instrumental year courses. If you, your son or daughter are eligible for music lessons, the relevant teacher will contact you with a proposal for a day and time. We try to have the draft schedule ready in the second week of July. If you have not heard from us by then, you can assume that placement is not possible for the new course year. You will receive a message about this some time later.
If you have registered yourself or your child for a short course: these courses start in October, January and April. You will be notified two weeks in advance whether participation is possible.
For classroom classes such as AMV, Music and Movement, Choirs and Dance, you will receive an email or letter notifying you of placement by the end of July.

In the general information of your chosen dance course you will find the schedule with days and times.

The number of people with impaired hearing is increasing enormously. On the one hand this is due to aging, on the other hand deafness is increasingly being diagnosed among young people and musicians. An important cause is loud noise, including loud music. If you want to know what you can do to prevent hearing damage, go to www.hoorstichting.nl
