"I
have been very happy with the work and progress
that my two children, Oliver and Raleigh, have
made at Fusion Learning Center. They have been
tutored well, and made great strides with their
music. A very good experience. Look forward
to a repeat next year. Thank you."

| Here
at Fusion, we believe that music and art are integral
to the development of the whole child. While other
schools and districts are slashing their funds for
the arts, Fusion consistently pours our resources
into our remarkable music department. |

The statistics
in favor of musical education are vast, and we have
seen first-hand what a music education can do for a
child. We have witnessed music turn an at-risk student
in to an achiever. We have seen a child’s
self-esteem grow when feelings are allowed to flow through
an instrument. We have seen depression and anxiety disappear
in a student who was given a guitar. For these reasons,
Fusion prides itself on our Music Department and Recording
Studio.
Fusion
offers the following private lessons and courses for
credit in:

*Courses
are taught from the beginner to the advanced-performer
level.
Fusion’s
philosophy for music education is performance based.
While theory and technique are stressed on a daily basis,
we believe that all students want to learn to PLAY,
and they want to learn to play NOW! Fusion honors the
musical tastes of each student, and individualizes the
lessons and classes to reflect the unique talents of
each learner. Private lessons are one hour, and courses
for high school credit meet all state standards.

BAND
Fusion
offers a performance-based band consisting of guitar,
bass, drums, vocals, and recording. Fusion Band meets
weekly for rehearsals, and plays a variety of music
from jazz to rock, R&B to the blues. Fusion Band
is taken very seriously by our students, and a professional-grade
CD is often the culmination of their efforts, celebrated
by a CD release party every summer! Auditions are held
throughout the year. Call Nicholas Angelo, Music Department

PROFESSIONAL
RECORDING STUDIO
Fusion
takes music so seriously that we have invested in a
full professional recording studio, complete with high-quality
microphones and instruments, as well as professional-grade
software required to record and create a quality CD.
Students enrolled in Recording Arts are educated in
the use of the latest technology pertaining to the recording
world. They learn the use of industry-standard computer
software as well as professional recording, editing,
and mixing techniques. There is a full MIDI lab with
software for film scoring, and other audio use.
Fusion’s
Recording Studio is so state-of-the-art that it is also
available for local bands to hire for CD demo creations
and professional recording advice. Fusion opens at night
and on weekends to accommodate a local band’s needs.
Prices vary depending on the project. Again, contact
