Our Teachers

Expertise offered in Performance,
Composition and Theory,
Production, Electronic Music
Pop, Rock, Blues, Jazz and Classical. 

We offer lessons for all ages and skill levels for all instruments and voice.

*All teachers have clearances and criminal background checks

Our music teachers offer high quality training, drawn from their own professional experience. With undergraduate and graduate degrees (M.M., B.M.) in performance and education, many of our teachers are long-time music students themselves, or are musicians working professionally in the field. Focusing on performance, composition, songwriting or production, students will find areas of studies ranging from pop to classical, beat-production to musical scoring, and more. When working with our teachers, college-bound students can expect preparation for conservatory and college auditions, as well as performance opportunities. Students learning music for fun or to expand upon previous knowledge will encounter personalized instruction from our teachers. Children will gain an appreciation for music in our eclectic beginner lessons and classes. We encourage beginner, intermediate, and advanced students of all ages to pursue music with us.
