Why Is Stockton Music the Best Choice for You!
Focus on Teaching
All we do is teach. We do not sell or rent instruments or music. This leaves us free to specialize in one thing -providing the highest quality of music instruction.
University-Trained Instructors
Our instructors are highly qualified and many have extensive performance experience. Most importantly, our instructors strive to relate their teaching to each individual student's learning style.
Private Lessons
Private lessons ensure that the student has the undivided attention of the teacher and can progress at a level suited to them individually. Private lessons are offered for piano, acoustic and electric guitar, bass guitar, drums, violin, and voice. We have found that private one-on-one instruction allows students to progress at their own pace and gain the best understanding of musical techniques.
Students can start private lessons as young as 5 years old. Students can start private lessons any time of the year or month so there's no need to wait to get started. A variety of styles are taught such as pop, jazz, rock, and classical. Contact the school office to see which times and days are available.
Regular Recitals
Recitals and concerts are held at least twice a year. These provide students with performance experience and build confidence. Students are given an opportunity to perform in recitals held over the course of the year. The recitals are optional, but help build confidence. All of our music recitals have free admission, so the whole family and friends can attend to enjoy the performances.
