MORE THAN YOU IMAGINE

PIANO & VIOLIN LESSONS

It's no secret that proper music lessons have a profound impact on a student's success in school and quality of life as an adult. When done right, music lessons challenge the whole person and develop pathways to think creatively. As Einstein said, "If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music." Together we can give future physicists, doctors, laborers, athletes, and all types of people the opportunity to get more out of life by studying music as Einstein did.

PIANO

Piano is the instrument everyone should learn to play. Not only is it very accessible and visual, but it can play the notes of every other instrument. The piano is a symphony at your fingertips.


Piano students progress through The Conservatory Course with weekly lessons. All students prepare for performances with multiple formal and informal opportunities throughout the year.


Students will want an instrument at home and can start on an electronic keyboard. An acoustic piano or a quality digital piano is recommended by Level 2.

VIOLIN

The violin is a beautiful instrument that is best learned from a young age. Playing the violin fosters discipline and patience, as mastering the instrument requires time and perseverance. The violin is also a social instrument where being part of an orchestra or ensemble builds teamwork and fosters belonging.


Violin students progress through The Conservatory Course with weekly lessons. All students prepare for performances with multiple formal and informal opportunities throughout the year.


Students can start without an instrument but will need one at home within the first month. Violins can be rented or purchased through us or any violin shop.
