More About Music Lessons with Agnes
Our Story
Welcome to our music program, where a passionate mother-daughter duo guides you to unlock your sound and discover your center through music. Our work weaves together voice, piano and cello with improvisation, composition, music theory, techniques, performance skills, sight reading skills, and more. Lessons are tailored to each individual, supporting both creative expression and solid musical foundations. Through guided exploration, students develop coordination, fine motor skills, and strong mind-body awareness. Music becomes a tool not only for learning notes and rhythms, but for sharpening focus, strengthening the brain, and building confidence. Improvisation encourages curiosity and freedom, while theory and technique provide clarity and structure.
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced musician, our approach supports growth at your own pace. Music is treated as a living language, one that connects listening, movement, emotion, and intellect. The goal is not just to play or sing well, but to feel grounded, expressive, and fully present in sound.
We are proud of our students who consistently achieve State Honor Awards in Certificate of Merit from MTAC, and demonstrated dedication, work ethics, creativity and awards of excellence. Congratulations to those who received recognition in their level categories for the 2026 Baroque Festival, Theme Festival, Contemporary Music Festival, and Annual Convention Award ceremony and Performance.
