Enrichment Classes 2025

In addition to the two hours of core curriculum, each student registered may enroll in more ­enrichment courses.

Siblings are also welcome to register for enrichment classes.

Students can choose from the following enrichment classes:

Improvisation for all: Beginning with students as young as 4 years old!

All instruments and levels are invited to learn the art of fiddle and improvisation. Students will be grouped into classes according to their level of playing and all will do lots of scatting exercises, percussion for jazz games, and instruments at varying levels for the beginning improvisation.

Origami: Charlie Graham will present several projects in the ancient Japanese art of paper folding. Please indicate your prior experience level on the registration form.

Singing: Our singing class introduces rhythm, pitch, and harmony by singing together. The class will include movement and fun songs taught in a playful, meaningful, and joyful context. Classes will be organized by age. Minimum age: 4 years old.

Dalcroze: One of our most popular enrichment classes for students of all ages!

Dalcroze Education is a playful, experiential approach to teaching and learning music. It is a process for awakening, developing, and refining innate musicality through rhythmic movement (often called eurhythmics), ear-training, and improvisation.

Orchestra: At OSI, orchestra is a core class for all! Students will love learning music with Gwen Gilbertson and Marian Gutierrez.

All orchestras begin rehearsals on Sunday afternoon and perform Friday.
