The European Music Academy provides an intensive and comprehensive course of instrumental music training. Welcoming students of all ages, levels and backgrounds, with or without previous experience, our program offers preparatory and continuing instruction in:

· Piano

· Violin

· Music Theory/History/Music Appreciation

Highly professional instructors celebrate each student’s very first note to their advanced accomplishments. Through experience and knowledge of music methodology, we provide instruction tailored to each student’s learning abilities.

Perhaps the most important step to becoming an accomplished musician is to develop performance skill. Our program offers many performance opportunities including recitals, master classes and workshops. With a hands-on model, instructors perform in class and in recitals through the course of the program.

Philosophy & Methodology:

A key tenet of our teaching philosophy is to build a comfortable environment where students can enjoy themselves while learning.  Part of the goal of music instruction should be to learn how to learn. Through creative games in music theory and instrumental training, entertaining repertoire and collaboration with teachers and peers, students capture a sense of enrichment and place more value on music study.  

We believe that every child has a powerful need for creativity and a natural understanding of rhythm and music. If nurtured, this can develop into refined skill and craftsmanship.

Students are well-educated in Russian, European, and American Pedagogical Studies and receive comprehensive instruction in: 

· Notation, music theory and ear training

· Sight-reading and sight-playing

· Technical and performance skills
