“School of Rock has come to Warren.”
Joseph Glarner isn’t just a professional musician and the musical director at Trinity Memorial Episcopal Church, he’s also bringing back the Warren Music Conservatory along with other music professionals.
“It’s more than just playing music,’ said Glarner, explaining that on top of the visual of music like performances and recordings, there’s another 75 percent of musicians you don’t see. Talent, intuition, creativity, practice, intelligence, experience, mental acuity, self confidence, experimentation with instruments and gear, ear training and education, sharing of musical ideas, physical condition and knowledge of music theory and history are also vital for successful musicians.

It’s about creating opportunities for passionate students of music.

Unlike other classes at the conservatory, the youth orchestra will not follow a cohort structure. The goal instead, said Glarner, is to keep students involved throughout their high school (and in some cases late middle school) careers. Click Here to see more of the Article
