music classes

We love and truly care about the progress of our students and in return we see enthusiasm of learning. 

Our goal is to help every student to become a musician and carry this passion through life. Young musicians are proven to become strong and motivated individuals who succeed in any field they choose their career in.

Music is a language - and like any language, there are many basics which must be mastered prior to advancing to more complex applications. During a course of study, we attempt to cover all areas of musicianship: theory, technique, formal analysis, harmony, ear-training, sight-reading, and a comprehensive study of musical literature in a progressive fashion. Please bear in mind that no two students are exactly alike, and children (as well as adults) learn at different rates of speed. Even brothers and sisters within families differ radically in motivation and temperament. Therefore, I approach students as individuals and attempt to challenge each according to their own unique potential. Music is not easy, and may not always be "fun". However, given sufficient time and structured practice, it does become enjoyable to master the many different aspects of this art.
