Music lessons at Long Ridge Music Center are for all levels and range from beginner music lessons, intermediate and advanced.
If you or your child are interested in taking piano lessons, voice lessons, violin lessons, cello lessons, guitar lessons, drum lessons or bass lessons, we'll be happy to have you join us.
If you're interested in learning how to play an instrument that is not listed above, such as banjo, trumpet, saxophone or sitar, please let us know as we may be able to arrange for music lessons for these instruments as well.
We also run student recitals and offer programs for music theory, practice partners, band ensembles, chamber music, adult evening play groups and music teacher performances.
Who Are Our Music Teachers?
The music teachers at Long Ridge Music Center are carefully assessed and qualified by our management.
We interview and audition music teachers to ensure that their personalized music teaching philosophy is one that we support.
Music teachers have different styles for teaching and they excel in varied musical genres, age and musical proficiency levels.
Being able to select from a large pool of highly qualified teachers allows us to match the best music teacher based on the student/parents preference in order to reach the best results.
What area do we serve?
Long Ridge Music Center is conveniently located on Long Ridge Rd, just off the Merritt Parkway exit 34.
We are within minutes drive from Stamford, Greenwich, New Canaan and Darien, CT... as well as Pound Ridge, Bedford and Armonk, NY.
Most of our students arrive from the above listed towns but some come from further away such as Westport, CT or Rye, NY.
Do we rent musical instruments?
Yes. We rent musical instruments including violin, viola, cello, flute, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, saxophone and drum kits.
Some of Long Ridge Music Center's young guitar students may also rent special sized guitars.
Piano rentals, leasing and a variety of other piano related programs are available through our affiliate business, Allegro Pianos, with whom we share our building.
Do we offer home music lessons?
We can offer 'in home music lessons' but rarely do so for several important reasons.
Student's approach, especially children, is substantially different when lessons take place at our facility.
They are better prepared, advance faster and are more likely to enjoy the benefits of music playing over students taking lessons at home. It is likely that the specific, distraction free environment offered at our facility contributes to this success.
In addition, most of the best music teachers prefer a music studio environment where they can focus on teaching music lessons rather than spend their time driving from one location to another. At Long Ridge Music Center, we value and prefer to work with the most qualified and experienced music teachers.
Unfortunately, while interviewing and assessing prospective music teachers, we found most often that those willing to provide in home music lessons did not meet our expectations and could not teach at our music school..
Finally, a controlled and safe environment such as we offer within our facility, provides the utmost security for young students in a private setting. Large windows and doors with glass panels allows monitoring and ensures that lessons proceed as they should.
So, while at times we may be willing to arrange for in home music lessons, mostly for adults, it is a practice that we strongly discourage as we aim for our music students to succeed and enjoy their lessons to the fullest.
