Music to My Ears

​A Community Oriented Music Center

 Music to My Ears is a local family owned and operated music and theater arts education center, dedicated to enriching the individual and community. MTME offers private and group music lessons in all instruments and voice, plus musical theater productions for children and adults, opera, theater, acting, art and dance classes. We also host guest speakers who offer workshops on topics including preparing for auditions, pursuing a career in the arts, and performance psychology.

​Centrally located in Sonoma County, we strive to provide fun and enriching musical experiences for children and adults.​

​At Music to My Ears, we like to say, 
“Art is for everyone!” 
​
​We welcome all ages, genders, expressions, ethnicities, and abilities to come play, learn, expand, and be joyful.

Online Lesson Tips

Here are some things to start thinking about to create a successful online lesson:

• Please be sure to have your device fully charged as virtual meetings tend to run batteries down really quickly
• Please be in a well-lit, quiet place to have your lessons.
• Please place your device on a sturdy surface with an unobstructed view (we can adjust this in our first meeting)
• Be sure to have the normal materials with you: water, pencil, any assignments, books/printed materials I have sent via email
• Have charging cables on had in case your battery runs low
• Close all other programs/open tabs and silence any notifications in effort to save your battery and reduce distractions. 

We appreciate your flexibility and understanding.
