We'll start with the Musical Ladder Festival.  We just wrapped up the Musical Ladder Festival.

As you know we are constantly looking for new and fun ways to celebrate our students and their successes.  This is why we have the Musical Ladder System and the 150 Day Practice Challenge.

Your children are just starting their guitar lessons.  They’re super excited, and so are you but you’re not sure whether they should have an electric or an acoustic guitar to start with.   This is a very popular question,

Playing music is FUN! Actually performing and producing something that sounds great is FUN! Having people clap and compliment you on your performance is FUN! Making other people's day a bit better because of your music is FUN!

At the beginning of the lesson your teacher will likely ask you what kind of music you like.  This is to help him get to know you and what you want to learn. 

As a musician and a parent I am constantly looking for opportunities for my kids to learn and grow.  Not just as musicians but as people. I want my children to grow up to become kind, caring, smart, and sensitive people that make the world a better place.   

Over the past year or so we have received many requests to offer lessons in Burlington.  Many of these requests came from referrals from happy Burlington families. 

Buying the guitar is of course only half the equation.   You have to learn how to play it as well. 

Trying to decide between hiring a private guitar or piano teacher or going to a music school?  Here are a few insights on the subject and why we believe that choosing the Burlington Academy of Music is the better choice for most families.
