From a child’s very first note to advanced ensemble playing, the Centre offers private lessons and group classes taught by degreed, caring instructors. Tap any program below for the details.
Lessons adapt to each student’s development and come in 30-, 45-, and 60-minute slots — Monday, Tuesday & Thursday during the school year, from 9 AM to 9 PM.
