Preparatory and Community Music Division

After several months of inactivity, the Music Department’s Preparatory Program is open again, effective Fall 2021!

Are you looking for a music teacher? The Hood Music Department offers private lessons to members of the Frederick community and the surrounding area. We currently offer instruction in all brass instruments; oboe, English horn, clarinet, bassoon, and saxophone; guitar; violin, viola, cello, and double bass; piano, organ, and harpsichord; voice; conducting and composition. All ages and skill levels are welcome.

Lessons take place in Brodbeck Music Hall.
