Little Mission Chamber Ensembles - classses    San Francisco.    3-18
"One of the great joys to learning music is gaining the skills necessary to create music with others! So often, musical study is a very solitary experience, with lots of time spent practicing on your own. Yet, all that solo practice can help prepare you to collaborate with other musicians. Our Little Mission Chamber Ensembles class is the perfect way to explore making music with others!"
Also offers lessons, rental space for practice and rehearsals, and more.
