With the guitar ensemble led by Mieke Kooij you get the chance to play your guitar with others. In the ensemble lessons you will of course work on playing together, but also on presentation, sound and different styles of music. Furthermore, it is great fun to meet like-minded people and work towards the Christmas concert and the final concert. The lessons take place on a Monday from 18:00 to 19:00 in room 2.1. If you want to join, ask your teacher if that is possible and if there is room. You can also sign up by clicking the button below. Photo: Shane van Hattum Sign up

The percussion ensemble was created because percussion and drum teacher Maarten Rongen wanted to present all percussion students as one large group during his annual recital evening. Maarten finds playing together - in addition to the individual lessons - very important and wants the students to come into contact with other percussion instruments besides the drum and drum kit. Enthusiastic percussion students can participate in the percussion ensemble. Experienced percussionists who do not take percussion lessons at the Diemen Music School, but who do have sufficient knowledge and mastery of percussion instruments and notation, can also register for this ensemble at Music School Diemen The ensemble is led by percussion teacher and conductor Maarten Rongen. Because we are currently experiencing location problems for rehearsals, the ensemble's rehearsals are not taking place at the moment. We are working hard on a solution. If this situation improves, we will keep you informed. Sign Up
