NATIONAL HOMESCHOOL MUSIC ENSEMBLES

"Excellence is a habit, not an act." (Aristotle)

Why music?                 Application           Schedules           Costs          Goals!          A Note from Mr. Dobrosky          Insights

These pictures are from our annual Winter Holiday Concert,

held December, 2009, at Forsythe School in Ann Arbor.

In the year 2000, a group of dedicated Christian parents sat down with Mr. Don Dobrosky to formulate a music program that met the needs of the home school community.

After ten years of experience, NHME has come to be recognized as one of the finest and most affordable homeschool music instructional programs in the State of Michigan.  Located in Tecumseh and Ann Arbor, NHME provides bands at beginning, and advanced levels, choir, percussion ensemble, and string instruction, although not all classes are taught at all locations. NHME is a charter member of the Michigan Homeschool Music Network which is the state organization providing services such as Solo and Ensemble Festival, the Honors Band, Choir, and Orchestra in Lansing each May.

This past year we played with the wind ensemble at the University of Akron in Akron, Ohio.  Many of our advanced players attained Honors Band status and performed at the INCH conference in the Lansing Center last May. NHME had a number of students participate in the second State Solo and Ensemble Festival held for homeschool students at Spring Arbor College.

NHME has a Band Camp each summer, the third week in July, in Tecumseh, and this program has provided NHME students with a large portion of the excellence to which the NHME program aspires.

NHME is looking forward to another productive year. Last year, the fee schedule was changed to reflect the changes in the Michigan economy.  This reduction in fees resulted in a 50% increase in the number of students in the NHME program.

Come join us! Talk to the parents whose children already are part of the NHME team. Ask those parents what music instruction has done for their students. Let us share with you the many advantages that only music instruction can provide to the learning environment. Music is a core subject in any comprehensive educational program. We invite you to give your children the finest, the gift of music.

 

 

NHME stands for excellence and strives to be the finest music instruction program in southeast Michigan.  We are proud to serve the homeschool community in Lenawee and Washtenaw counties with a high quality and comprehensive band program.
