Chelle! & Friends offers outstanding music education workshops for children and adults in a variety of formats suitable to your specific needs, ranging from one-day intensives to week-long programs.




"This fall, CHELLE! And Friends brought New Orleans to the Bay Area Discovery Museum, a children’s museum in Sausalito! With drums, percussion, bass and powerful voices, they delivered a musically rich gumbo of New Orleans jazz, R & B and gospel, fused with Caribbean rhythms. They made no concessions to the age of their pint-sized audience and the kids loved it. So did the adults in the crowd. For the finale, CHELLE! followed by all the 3 and 4 year olds in the house paraded to the strains of When the Saints Come Marching In. They even tossed necklaces into the audience to the delight of all."

The members of Chelle! & Friends have decades of experience teaching individual vocal and choral styles, harmonic and rhythmic techniques, and foundational music theory and have instructed for such groups as San Francisco Symphony's Adventures in Music, Oakland Youth Chorus, Youth in Performance, and Cazadero Music Camp, to name a few. 
 

Like the music of New Orleans that Chelle! & Friends is famous for performing onstage, their music workshops can reflect and be customized to emphasize any of a variety of disciplines (Traditional and Modern Jazz, Blues, African, Latin, Caribbean, American and Ethnic, Folk, etc.).
