Music currently offers all types of lessons including guitar, bass, piano, voice, drums, mallet percussion, woodwinds, brass,
violin and harmonica. Our instructors are professional musicians who either teach in area school systems or perform
locally.
We believe that music lessons should not only teach the basic concept of playing the instrument, but also inspire
creativity. Most of all, we believe that music lessons should be fun. Students are encouraged to bring in songs
that they enjoy and the teachers will try to incorporate them into the lessons.

The idea that music makes you smarter has received considerable
attention from scholars and the media. The present report is the first
to test this hypothesis directly with random assignment of a large sample of
children to two different types of music lessons (keyboard or voice) or to control groups that
received drama lessons or no lessons. IQ was measured before and after
the lessons. Compared with children in the control groups, children in the music
groups exhibited greater increases in full-scale IQ. Unexpectedly, children in the drama group exhibited substantial pre-
to post test improvements in adaptive social behavior that were not evident in the music groups.
