ABOUT THE CUMBERLAND VALLEY SCHOOL OF MUSIC . . .
- Chambersburg - Waynesboro -
Mercersburg - Hagerstown -
Founded in 1990,
the Cumberland Valley School of Music (CVSM) is a member of the National
Guild of Community Schools of the Arts. Our offices and primary studios
are located in Thomson Hall at Wilson College, where we offer a wide
range of lessons, classes, workshops, and summer camps and present
recitals and concerts in the beautiful Thomson Alumnae Chapel, which
houses two recently renovated Steinway Concert Grand pianos and a Moller
Organ. However we also teach at the Mercersburg Academy, Mercersburg,
PA, the Montessori Academy, Chambersburg, PA; Fairview Avenue Brethren
in Christ Church and St. Andrew School, Waynesboro, PA; and St. Maria
Goretti High School, Hagerstown, MD. Over 600 students are enrolled at
CVSM in a given year, served by 55 highly qualified faculty members.
Camps and programs have also been taught in collaboration with the
Chambersburg YMCA’s Sam’s Gang, Neighborhood Ministries, and Network
Youth Ministries, and others.
CVSM teaches all
orchestral and band instruments, voice, piano, guitar, drama and
theatrical techniques, Suzuki piano, and numerous classes for all ages.
CVSM sponsors the
Cumberbunds (a childrens chorus); the CVSM Community Symphonic Band; the
CVSM Community String Orchestra; the CVSM Concert Jazz Band; numerous
student ensembles; extensive performance and recital opportunities (last
year, over 500 students performed in recitals, and CVSM faculty and
students performed at over 100 different venues in the area); and
numerous workshops. We offer a full range of outreach programs to area
senior and community centers and public and private schools (including
private lessons to students at Wilson College, Mercersburg Academy,
Montessori Academy, St. Andrew School, and lessons, classes, and
ensembles at St. Maria Goretti High School), and schedule numerous
events throughout the communities we serve, including an annual Showcase
Concert, an Awards Concert, a series of “Musicales” (held in the
intimate setting of private homes), a Celebration of African American
Gospel Music, An Elegant Winter Dinner Dance, a Celebration of Jazz
(featuring internationally acclaimed musicians such as Phil Woods, James
Moody, Turtle Island String Quartet, and Kenny Barron), and an annual
student Performathon.
Scholarships are
awarded based on financial need and merit, and students in need are
actively sought each year.
Our doors are
open. Come visit us, and participate in lessons, classes, workshops,
ensembles, and concerts. We believe that music can enrich everyone’s
life!
The CVSM
Music Store provides the best in instrument rentals and sales,
musical accessories (such as valve oil, strings, rosin, reeds, music stands,
metronomes, tuners, mutes . . . ), printed music, and repairs.
If we don't stock it, we can most likely order it and have it in a few
days.
And best of all, all profits from the store help support your
community music school, the non-profit Cumberland Valley School of
Music. Located on the 2nd
floor of Thomson Hall on the Wilson College campus, the store is open
Monday, 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM, and Tuesday - Friday, 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM.
