Essential Elements Interactive = VIDEO RESOURCE for starting to play your new instrument.

We will get all students signed into EEi – but it will take a few steps and a bit of time.

For right now — these videos are from the EEi web page.

• PLEASE watch the video(s) for YOUR INSTRUMENT to be sure you are doing things correctly.  

You can revisit the links until they expire on October 31, 2021.

• Once you’re signed in to EEi, you can watch them all year.
• To access the video folders right now, you need a password to access the files.
• The password will be shared in class.

Please watch the videos by October 10

• There will be a short follow-up assignment in class during the next week.
