Scheduling, faculty and tuition
Schedule a Lesson
All private music lessons are scheduled on an individual basis. Instructors conduct lessons weekly at a set time for 30, 45 or 60 minutes. Your registration reserves your time slot for the duration of the quarter. Priority is given to returning students and early registrants.
Call (617) 699-9388 for scheduling availability.
Faculty Qualifications
Every instructor in the faculty is selected through a rigorous evaluation process. Instructors are chosen based on not only performance track record but also proven teaching capability. Whether you are the parents of a child or you are an adult student yourself, we understand that you are coming here to learn, not to attend a concert. If you are interested in joining our faculty or orchestra, please contact us.
