  • In-home music lessons are conveniently located in the comfort of your home. For piano students this means that teachers can work with students on the instruments they are actually practicing on and advise on best practice methods! Families are encouraged to provide a quiet area, free from distractions to ensure a successful lesson.

  • Please use our contact form to inquire about lesson rates. Tuition covers weekly lessons, music books, lesson materials, group make-up lessons, recitals, and other resources and events for the student throughout the semester

  • We offer in-home music lessons to ages 5 and up (including adults)! We also offer parent/child lessons for younger beginner students. Simply ask us to learn more!

  • Yes! Many of our students start with a good keyboard in their home. We are happy to help with recommendations!

  • We offer weekly lessons for ages 5 and up. If your child is younger than 5, we offer a trial lesson first. For younger students (ages 5-7), we recommend beginning with 30 minute lessons. Older students can choose between 30, 45 and 60 minutes. If your teacher recommends longer lessons and has availability, we can always increase the length of your child’s lesson.

    Lessons take place weekly during the school year (see our Harmony calendar for holidays). During the summer, we offer -5, -7 and -9 lesson packages so that students can keep up their skills in between camps and summer vacations!

    Beginning students usually start by practicing 4-5 days a week for 10 or 15 minutes each time. Practice time will gradually increase with experience.

  • Enrolling a student with Harmony Music Studios is reserving a place in the studio for the semester. The weekly lesson time for the semester is the purchase of a teacher’s time reserved exclusively for the student. Because of this, we offer two options for student misses.

    You can request a weekly lesson plan from your teacher. This individual lesson plan will guide your student through the week so that they can work on assignments without missing a beat!

    We also offer one 60 minute online group make-up lesson at the end of each semester and one at the end of the summer session. These group lessons are always a lot of fun and a great way for students to get together and learn music theory with each other! They even have a chance to perform for each other at the end of the lesson!

    If your teacher misses a lesson, they will contact you to find a time for a make-up lesson. If your teacher is unable to make up the lesson in a timely manner, you will receive a credit for that missed lesson.

  • Yes! Absolutely! We love teaching our adult students! These lessons are simply a relaxing and fun learning experience and recitals are completely optional!

  • Yes! All our teachers are taking recommended safety precautions this year as we are welcomed back into your homes. We also continue to offer online lessons for families who prefer it.

 
 
You have opened my life up to music and I could not be more grateful for it! I look forward to spending a lot more time learning and enjoying the complex landscape of music.
