Adult Class

Nashville Number System

$180

with Eli Billings

Calendar Sep 8, 2025 at 7:15 pm, runs for 14 weeks

The Nashville Number System class teaches musicians how to communicate with other musicians and read chord charts no matter what key any song is in. They will learn to read and write chord charts using numbers instead of lettered chord names. This system allows players to quickly transpose songs into any key by representing chords as scale degrees (1, 4, 5, etc.). Please email info@reevesmusic.org with any accessibility requests upon registration, and with general questions or concerns about whether this class is a good fit.

Please note, this is a 12-week course taught over 14 weeks. No class the week of 10/15 or Thanksgiving week.
