Studio Consultations: We work with professionals and other studios/schools that are looking to streamline their business or innovate their method to better serve their clients. This is a separate service and MBIM students and teachers starting a new extension of MBIM will receive this consultation at a discounted price.
College Auditions/Preparation: It is a daunting task as you or your child look towards college which is why we offer pre-college audition consulting. This is best utilized during the sophomore year so that a proper plan can be designed for the university or music programs that the student wishes to apply to. We work closely with great people in multiple universities across the country and are happy to help prepare students for their ideal music program.
Discussing college direction: No matter what your skill level is on a given instrument, it is vitally important in today’s world to consider the option of a double major, one in a field outside of music. Because we work with professionals in multiple fields, we are happy to talk about starting a professional path for any young student wishing to reach success in a competitive world. MBIM students receive a discount for this service. We can also put your child in touch with professionals in various fields of interest.
Choosing an instrument: As a student progresses, it is important that their instrument keep up with their needs and skills. After working with some of the top bow/violin/string instrument makers as well as two of the top piano dealers in Colorado for over forty years, we strongly advise seeking advice before purchasing. There is nothing more important to a love of music than finding that “perfect” instrument, which is why it is of the utmost importance to get help before making a large investment.
Master Classes: We are happy to provide master classes for all students. There is an additional charge for these, however, it will be discounted for all MBIM students and scholarships are available. Each class will be grouped according to age and ability. We also offer specific composers if there is a competition that focuses on one or if there is particular interest in a special composer or era.
Public speaking/Key-Note speaking: Our top instructors are media trained and are accustomed to public speaking or presentations. Please email or call us if you are interested. Please be aware that our top speakers are often booked in advance.
Accompanying: Mrs. Beck is one of Colorado’s top accompanists and has worked in the US, Austria, and Germany, helping bring out the best in the performers she works with. All MBIM students need to contact her for college auditions six months in advance. For anyone outside MBIM, please contact us to inquire.
