Camp Marshall Music First!

A ten-year study indicates that students who study music achieve higher test scores, regardless of socioeconomic background.
- Dr. James Catterall, UCLA.


Camp Marshall is now offer music lesson to students of any age and experience. The music lessons will include the following instrumentations:


Flute
Clarinet
Alto Saxophone
Tenor Saxophone
Guitar
French Horn
Trumpet
Trombone
Tuba
Voice
Percussion


Beginning instrumentalists and vocalists face a list of challenges when trying to start out learning an instrument. The goal in a private one on one lesson is to help make it easier on the student. Most students don’t know if they are practicing the correct way or if they are making any progress with how they are practicing. Children often can become frustrated by the feelings of trying to develop the muscle memory in the embouchure, which they have never had to use before. A private lesson will help children build the feeling of being comfortable and confident on the instrument that they have chosen.

Robert Lesley, our certified teacher, holds a bachelors degree in Music Education from the University of Massachusetts At Lowell. His experience has spanned over the last five years with teaching students on developing and excelling with their instrument of choice. He is an avid trumpet player that performs on occasion through the University of Massachusetts at Lowell and with the Boston University Bands.

The lessons that are offered can either be for the duration of a half hour at a rate of $20 or a full hour lesson for $30.00.

Scheduling is very flexible and can be catered to your needs Monday through Sunday. If you have any further questions please feel free to call Robert Lesley at 508-885-4891 or email Robert@campmarshall.org. We look forward to hearing from you!




College admissions officers continue to cite participation in music as an important factor in making admissions decisions. They claim that music participation demonstrates time management, creativity, expression, and open-mindedness.
