SAGE MUSIC: ENROLL NOW FOR THE FALL SEMESTER When Jason Sagebiel founded Sage Music in 2012, he had the goal of providing students young and old with a holistic approach to music education. e school’s educational core focuses on proper instrument mechanics, proper body usage, and the best methods for learning and practicing. With locations in both Long Island City and Greenpoint, Brooklyn, Sage Music o ers personal consultations for each prospective student where instructors evaluate their personality, interests, and ability level to determine the best path. e school has courses in composition, theory, and performance for guitar, piano, voice, violin, cello, clarinet, saxophone, ute, trumpet, and drums. “We o er lessons on a semester basis,” says Sagebiel, a critically acclaimed artist and MTNA nationally certi ed music teacher. “We do have rolling admission, but we generally advise students to start in September.” Sagebiel adds that starting in September at the beginning of the new semester will help students to stay on track with the program. When Sagebiel meets with a new student for his or her consultation, he provides them with a thorough overview of how lessons are structured and o ers tips on how to make the lessons most e ective. As with all other aspects of music education at Sage, Sagebiel tailors these tips to the student’s age and ability level. “If the student is a child, we talk to his or her parents about how to get the most out of the lessons. For Fall 2014, Sage Music will roll group classes to supplement the private lessons, including a KinderMusic course for children under ve years old, a Musical Beginnings course for ages three through ve, and an Introduction to Musical Instruments course for ages six through twelve, which exposes students to all instruments in order to help them decide which one they like best. Sage will also introduce an outdoor concert series for Fall, which will feature the musical talents of local musicians.

The substitute gave the students the option of walking around the track or playing touch football. After walking one lap around the track, my daughter and her friends approached the substitute, “Can we go on the mats at the other end of the football field?” These mats were for the sport that is appropriately called ‘high jump’. The substitute said yes, but gave the children no warnings or instructions about these mats. As my daughter neared the edge of a mat, attempting to get down, her foot became caught in a tear. While attempting to untangle her foot, she plunged to the ground. Advertorial A: If you have good photographs, then a jury can reasonably infer that the tear in the mat had existed for a sufficient period of time for the school to have discovered and remedied it in the exercise of reasonable care. The school is deemed to have had ‘notice’. The school might choose to defend itself by arguing that the tear in the mat was ‘open and obvious’ under the circumstances. The issue of whether a dangerous condition is open and obvious is fact-specific, and usually a question for a jury. A condition that is ordinarily apparent to one person – making reasonable use of her senses – may be rendered a ‘trap for the unwary’ where the condition is obscured or the victim is distracted. The law responds to changed conditions; exceptions and variations abound. Here, the information is general; always seek out competent counsel This article shall not be construed as legal advice.
