As a family new to Boulder, we feel so lucky to have found Mason at Mountainside Music. He’s been an incredible teacher for our 11-year-old son, who is just starting out with percussion. Mason is patient, encouraging, and has built a great connection with our son—helping him gain both confidence and excitement about learning his instrument. We highly recommend Mason to anyone looking for a supportive and skilled music instructor.

Daniel has been teaching my child to play the violin and piano. He has been awesome at skill techniques and has helped my child learn so much more. My child is ahead of her violin class at school and they said she had a good teacher for teaching her these skills and movements. He's patient and also helps find music that will keep my child interested and engaged. We're glad he was available to give lessons in the Lafayette area.

Jared has been a great instructor for our son as he continues to learn the trumpet and is beginning to learn how to play the trombone. He comes prepared for the week's lesson and has great content. He is supportive of our son and encourages him to step outside of his comfort zone. Highly recommended.

We love Jared Crider at Mountainside Music in Boulder! He has been teaching Anna (10yrs old) for nearly a year, and under his tutelage she has improved in leaps and bounds. She was not a beginner (this is her third year playing trumpet), but he has really figured out how to take her playing to the next level. He really knows how to strike the balance between fun/encouragement versus introducing discipline and exercises to improve technique. Highly recommend!

As a grandmother who wanted to give my grandson, Jackson, additional support in his early musical exploration, I decided to seek lessons with Mountainside Music Academy. I can say that so far everything is going well for him. Jackson is really enjoying his weekly trombone lessons with Zoe.  She seems easy to work with, communicates well with him and is really supportive and encouraging while challenging him to be more bold in his play.  He likes to do well so it's nice to see him pushing himself to improve, she seems to be motivating him. He smiles and seems really happy when he talks about his lessons.  He has even played a few "concerts" for the family. So far we are very pleased with the experience, and it is wonderful to see him enjoying playing his trombone.

Mountainside Music Academy it the BEST! My 9 year old started trumpet in her school band this year! We wanted her to feel confident and really get the most out of the experience, so we reached out to Mountainside to find a trumpet teacher who could come to our house in Westminster and teach. Mountainside Music responded quickly and got us set up with Darian and an initial lesson that fit our schedule right away. Darian is a great teacher and has been instrumental in boosting my child's confidence and keeping up that feeling of fun that is sometimes hard to bring to learning music. We have a pretty complicated schedule, and Mountainside has been easy to schedule with, and is responsive and clear in their communication. We are very thankful to have found a great teacher and a great company to work with! I highly recommend both Darian and Mountainside Music Academy!

Upon my retirement, having time on my hands, I decided to return to playing the piano after an absence from the instrument of almost 25 years. I had previously taken lessons as an adult learner and gained some limited proficiency, but had to quit as the demands of work and life took over. Now having spent the past couple of years coming back up to speed on the instrument, I felt that I could use some help to advance further than I had previously and contacted Mountainside Music Academy. Mountainside connected me to Paul Zeller, who now comes to my house weekly. The experience has been fantastic. I love playing on my own piano and in surroundings in which I am comfortable. Paul is an excellent teacher: friendly, knowledgable, patient, and able to approach problems from a variety of different perspectives. As an adult learner, it's clear I will never be making waves as a musician - but, that's not really the point. Some instructors, however, could see this and quickly lose interest in guiding my efforts. Not Paul, he approaches each lesson with passion and a sincere interest in helping me achieve as much as I can. I am really fortunately to have found him through Mountainside Music Academy.

We have LOVED our experience with Mountainside music. Our 13 year old is thriving in guitar, and she looks forward to every lesson because she excited to learn new techniques. She had been teaching herself over the past few years off and on, but Now with teaching and new techniques she doesn’t want to out the guitar down. Our teacher is Daniel Florez, who does a fantastic job of encouraging her and showing her new proper technique so that she can go further. We live in Lafayette, Co. 100% recommend!

Marisa Perez avatar

We live in Boulder, and have been working with Logan for 4 months now and have had the most positive experience! My daughter is 15yrs old and took a 6 year break from the violin, so returning brought up the frustration of not being "as good as she remembers", having to start a few steps back, and not progressing as fast as she remembers. My daughter was met with extraordinary amounts of empathy and encouragement, and was really met where she was. I remember the first lessons Logan sitting on the floor gently re-introducing my daughter to her instrument, fast forward a few short months and she is preparing for her first recital with Mountainside Music Academy. I could not be more pleased with our experience. My 11 year old has been working with Jerry on the piano for about the same amount of time. Previously we tried 6 months of online/zoom piano lessons that focused primarily on ear training. Jerry has transitioned my 11 year old to reading music, paying attention to dynamics and tempo. The progress has been rapid and altogether astonishing, but the best part is my kid is looking forward to the next lesson, Jerry is able to make challenges fun and worthwhile. I especially enjoy when he introduces music outside of the normal lesson book, to show, for example, that a Satie piece really is accessible and you don't always need cartoons on your sheet music. Again, I could not be more pleased with our experience.

My son Luke has been with Mountainside taking piano lessons since this incredible academy opened! Originally Danit, who is the founder of this wonderful program was his instructor and for 4 years now he has had a few piano instructors all whom have been just perfect for my son. The love, professionalism, patience, instruction, and knowledge has helped my son really grow and develop a love for music that will honestly stay with him forever. Currently his piano instructor, Andi, has so much passion and love for music and it reflects in how she teaches. He loves every week when she shows up for lessons! My husband for a short while also took violin lessons from an instructor and had such a great experience as well. The concerts that Danit has offered make my son feel like a professional and Give him a great opportunity performing in front of a crowd. Thank you Mountainside Music Academy for giving us a beautiful music experience! What a beautiful group of professionals! Positive Value

Mountainside Music Academy is an amazing resource for quality music lessons of all types of instruments, voice, and theory. Both of my kids have taken lessons in voice, piano, and music theory for years with MMA and have gained skill, technique, and confidence while really enjoying their lessons. The teachers are very talented musicians and know how to tailor lessons to what each student needs. A great bonus, when in person classes resume, is that the music teachers will come to you, which makes it one less driving trip for parents! I highly recommend it for beginner through advanced learners. Positive Communication, Quality, Professionalism, Value

I especially loved that the approach to vocal training honored and preserved the uniqueness of my daughter’s voice, while expanding her range and control. She got kind and constructive feedback on her songwriting that always made her songs stronger. What I loved best was the joyful laughter and positive emotions that were generated during lessons! Mountainside Music Academy was the foundation of a love for music making in my daughter. I am so grateful we stumbled upon them. Positive Communication, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Previously we tried 6 months of online/zoom piano lessons that focused primarily on ear training. Jerry has transitioned my 11 year old to reading music, paying attention to dynamics and tempo. The progress has been rapid and altogether astonishing, but the best part is my kid is looking forward to the next lesson, Jerry is able to make challenges fun and worthwhile. I especially enjoy when he introduces music outside of the normal lesson book, to show, for example, that a Satie piece really is accessible and you don't always need cartoons on your sheet music. Again, I could not be more pleased with our experience.

MMA offers great piano lessons! Austin (he is very good and also great with kids) has been teaching our 6 year old daughter for the past few months and she is doing super. He comes home and teaches in Boulder. Within a short span of time she can play songs and read music - yayy!

My son has been taking trombone lessons with Ben through Mountainside music since the late summer. Ben is a nice teacher who talks about music in a very different way from his music teacher in school, and it is always so lovely to see him and listen to my son's playing improve.

My son Luke has been with Mountainside taking piano lessons since this incredible academy opened! Originally Danit, who is the founder of this wonderful program was his instructor and for 4 years now he has had a few piano instructors all whom have been just perfect for my son. The love, professionalism, patience, instruction, and knowledge has helped my son really grow and develop a love for music that will honestly stay with him forever. Currently his piano instructor, Andi, has so much passion and love for music and it reflects in how she teaches. He loves every week when she shows up for lessons! My husband for a short while also took violin lessons from an instructor and had such a great experience as well. The concerts that Danit has offered make my son feel like a professional and Give him a great opportunity performing in front of a crowd. Thank you Mountainside Music Academy for giving us a beautiful music experience! What a beautiful group of professionals! Positive Value

Mountainside Music Academy is an amazing resource for quality music lessons of all types of instruments, voice, and theory. Both of my kids have taken lessons in voice, piano, and music theory for years with MMA and have gained skill, technique, and confidence while really enjoying their lessons. The teachers are very talented musicians and know how to tailor lessons to what each student needs. A great bonus, when in person classes resume, is that the music teachers will come to you, which makes it one less driving trip for parents! I highly recommend it for beginner through advanced learners. Positive Communication, Quality, Professionalism, Value

My daughter’s voice and piano teacher was outstanding. I love that she came to the house. So convenient! I don’t think we could ever go back to going out for lessons. I especially loved that the approach to vocal training honored and preserved the uniqueness of my daughter’s voice, while expanding her range and control. She got kind and constructive feedback on her songwriting that always made her songs stronger. What I loved best was the joyful laughter and positive emotions that were generated during lessons!

As a grandmother who wanted to give my grandson, Jackson, additional support in his early musical exploration, I decided to seek lessons with Mountainside Music Academy. I can say that so far everything is going well for him. Jackson is really enjoying his weekly trombone lessons with Zoe.  She seems easy to work with, communicates well with him and is really supportive and encouraging while challenging him to be more bold in his play.  He likes to do well so it's nice to see him pushing himself to improve, she seems to be motivating him. He smiles and seems really happy when he talks about his lessons.  He has even played a few "concerts" for the family. So far we are very pleased with the experience, and it is wonderful to see him enjoying playing his trombone.

Mountainside Music Academy it the BEST! My 9 year old started trumpet in her school band this year! We wanted her to feel confident and really get the most out of the experience, so we reached out to Mountainside to find a trumpet teacher who could come to our house in Westminster and teach. Mountainside Music responded quickly and got us set up with Darian and an initial lesson that fit our schedule right away. Darian is a great teacher and has been instrumental in boosting my child's confidence and keeping up that feeling of fun that is sometimes hard to bring to learning music. We have a pretty complicated schedule, and Mountainside has been easy to schedule with, and is responsive and clear in their communication. We are very thankful to have found a great teacher and a great company to work with! I highly recommend both Darian and Mountainside Music Academy!

Upon my retirement, having time on my hands, I decided to return to playing the piano after an absence from the instrument of almost 25 years. I had previously taken lessons as an adult learner and gained some limited proficiency, but had to quit as the demands of work and life took over. Now having spent the past couple of years coming back up to speed on the instrument, I felt that I could use some help to advance further than I had previously and contacted Mountainside Music Academy. Mountainside connected me to Paul Zeller, who now comes to my house weekly. The experience has been fantastic. I love playing on my own piano and in surroundings in which I am comfortable. Paul is an excellent teacher: friendly, knowledgable, patient, and able to approach problems from a variety of different perspectives. As an adult learner, it's clear I will never be making waves as a musician - but, that's not really the point. Some instructors, however, could see this and quickly lose interest in guiding my efforts. Not Paul, he approaches each lesson with passion and a sincere interest in helping me achieve as much as I can. I am really fortunately to have found him through Mountainside Music Academy.

We live in Boulder, and have been working with Logan for 4 months now and have had the most positive experience! My daughter is 15yrs old and took a 6 year break from the violin, so returning brought up the frustration of not being "as good as she remembers", having to start a few steps back, and not progressing as fast as she remembers. My daughter was met with extraordinary amounts of empathy and encouragement, and was really met where she was. I remember the first lessons Logan sitting on the floor gently re-introducing my daughter to her instrument, fast forward a few short months and she is preparing for her first recital with Mountainside Music Academy.

We can’t recommend our teacher, Krescent, from Mountainside Music enough. There just aren’t words! Our son was brand new to signing and pretty nervous - but he wanted to try it so we took a chance. Krescent is such a high level instructor and could teach a pro! But, she treated our newbie with respect and care and made him feel so comfortable. He has come so far over the summer! It’s just priceless to hear him singing not only around the house now but ON STAGE! Thank you Krescent and thank you Mountainside Music!!!

I cannot recommend Becca highly enough as a music instructor! She has been teaching our boys saxophone and piano for the past few months and we are so impressed with her professionalism and skill. Becca is always on-time for lessons and comes to our house, which is incredibly convenient for our busy family. Her warm and friendly demeanor immediately put our boys at ease and they have made amazing progress under her tutelage. What sets Becca apart is her ability to teach with patience and clarity, making complex musical concepts accessible to our boys. She is an experienced musician herself and her passion for music shines through in every lesson. Overall, we feel incredibly fortunate to have Becca as our music instructor and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional teacher. Thank you, Becca, for all that you do!

Becca teaches our twin boys piano and they are thriving under her guidance. She gives them autonomy, support, and the techniques they need to excel. They always look forward to lessons and showing her what they’ve accomplished. We’ve done piano lessons elsewhere, and we are so happy we switched! Additionally, we were recommended to Mountainside Academy by friends who are learning piano and ukulele, and that family is also extremely pleased with their teacher.

Upon my retirement, having time on my hands, I decided to return to playing the piano after an absence from the instrument of almost 25 years. I had previously taken lessons as an adult learner and gained some limited proficiency, but had to quit as the demands of work and life took over. Now having spent the past couple of years coming back up to speed on the instrument, I felt that I could use some help to advance further than I had previously and contacted Mountainside Music Academy. Mountainside connected me to Paul Zeller, who now comes to my house weekly. The experience has been fantastic. I love playing on my own piano and in surroundings in which I am comfortable. Paul is an excellent teacher: friendly, knowledgable, patient, and able to approach problems from a variety of different perspectives. As an adult learner, it's clear I will never be making waves as a musician - but, that's not really the point. Some instructors, however, could see this and quickly lose interest in guiding my efforts. Not Paul, he approaches each lesson with passion and a sincere interest in helping me achieve as much as I can. I am really fortunately to have found him through Mountainside Music Academy.

Mountainside Music Academy it the BEST! My 9 year old started trumpet in her school band this year! We wanted her to feel confident and really get the most out of the experience, so we reached out to Mountainside to find a trumpet teacher who could come to our house in Westminster and teach. Mountainside Music responded quickly and got us set up with Darian and an initial lesson that fit our schedule right away. Darian is a great teacher and has been instrumental in boosting my child's confidence and keeping up that feeling of fun that is sometimes hard to bring to learning music. We have a pretty complicated schedule, and Mountainside has been easy to schedule with, and is responsive and clear in their communication. We are very thankful to have found a great teacher and a great company to work with! I highly recommend both Darian and Mountainside Music Academy!

As a grandmother who wanted to give my grandson, Jackson, additional support in his early musical exploration, I decided to seek lessons with Mountainside Music Academy. I can say that so far everything is going well for him. Jackson is really enjoying his weekly trombone lessons with Zoe.  She seems easy to work with, communicates well with him and is really supportive and encouraging while challenging him to be more bold in his play.  He likes to do well so it's nice to see him pushing himself to improve, she seems to be motivating him. He smiles and seems really happy when he talks about his lessons.  He has even played a few "concerts" for the family. So far we are very pleased with the experience, and it is wonderful to see him enjoying playing his trombone.

We live in Boulder, and have been working with Logan for 4 months now and have had the most positive experience! My daughter is 15yrs old and took a 6 year break from the violin, so returning brought up the frustration of not being "as good as she remembers", having to start a few steps back, and not progressing as fast as she remembers. My daughter was met with extraordinary amounts of empathy and encouragement, and was really met where she was. I remember the first lessons Logan sitting on the floor gently re-introducing my daughter to her instrument, fast forward a few short months and she is preparing for her first recital with Mountainside Music Academy. I could not be more pleased with our experience. My 11 year old has been working with Jerry on the piano for about the same amount of time. Previously we tried 6 months of online/zoom piano lessons that focused primarily on ear training. Jerry has transitioned my 11 year old to reading music, paying attention to dynamics and tempo. The progress has been rapid and altogether astonishing, but the best part is my kid is looking forward to the next lesson, Jerry is able to make challenges fun and worthwhile. I especially enjoy when he introduces music outside of the normal lesson book, to show, for example, that a Satie piece really is accessible and you don't always need cartoons on your sheet music.

Becca teaches our twin boys piano and they are thriving under her guidance. She gives them autonomy, support, and the techniques they need to excel. They always look forward to lessons and showing her what they’ve accomplished. We’ve done piano lessons elsewhere, and we are so happy we switched! Additionally, we were recommended to Mountainside Academy by friends who are learning piano and ukulele, and that family is also extremely pleased with their teacher.

I cannot recommend Becca highly enough as a music instructor! She has been teaching our boys saxophone and piano for the past few months and we are so impressed with her professionalism and skill. Becca is always on-time for lessons and comes to our house, which is incredibly convenient for our busy family. Her warm and friendly demeanor immediately put our boys at ease and they have made amazing progress under her tutelage. What sets Becca apart is her ability to teach with patience and clarity, making complex musical concepts accessible to our boys. She is an experienced musician herself and her passion for music shines through in every lesson. Overall, we feel incredibly fortunate to have Becca as our music instructor and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional teacher. Thank you, Becca, for all that you do!

We can’t recommend our teacher, Krescent, from Mountainside Music enough. There just aren’t words! Our son was brand new to signing and pretty nervous - but he wanted to try it so we took a chance. Krescent is such a high level instructor and could teach a pro! But, she treated our newbie with respect and care and made him feel so comfortable. He has come so far over the summer! It’s just priceless to hear him singing not only around the house now but ON STAGE! Thank you Krescent and thank you Mountainside Music!!!

We have LOVED our experience with Mountainside music. Our 13 year old is thriving in guitar, and she looks forward to every lesson because she excited to learn new techniques. She had been teaching herself over the past few years off and on, but Now with teaching and new techniques she doesn’t want to out the guitar down. Our teacher is Daniel Florez, who does a fantastic job of encouraging her and showing her new proper technique so that she can go further. We live in Lafayette, Co. 100% recommend!

Upon my retirement, having time on my hands, I decided to return to playing the piano after an absence from the instrument of almost 25 years. I had previously taken lessons as an adult learner and gained some limited proficiency, but had to quit as the demands of work and life took over. Now having spent the past couple of years coming back up to speed on the instrument, I felt that I could use some help to advance further than I had previously and contacted Mountainside Music Academy. Mountainside connected me to Paul Zeller, who now comes to my house weekly. The experience has been fantastic. I love playing on my own piano and in surroundings in which I am comfortable. Paul is an excellent teacher: friendly, knowledgable, patient, and able to approach problems from a variety of different perspectives. As an adult learner, it's clear I will never be making waves as a musician - but, that's not really the point. Some instructors, however, could see this and quickly lose interest in guiding my efforts. Not Paul, he approaches each lesson with passion and a sincere interest in helping me achieve as much as I can. I am really fortunately to have found him through Mountainside Music Academy.

Mountainside Music Academy it the BEST! My 9 year old started trumpet in her school band this year! We wanted her to feel confident and really get the most out of the experience, so we reached out to Mountainside to find a trumpet teacher who could come to our house in Westminster and teach. Mountainside Music responded quickly and got us set up with Darian and an initial lesson that fit our schedule right away. Darian is a great teacher and has been instrumental in boosting my child's confidence and keeping up that feeling of fun that is sometimes hard to bring to learning music. We have a pretty complicated schedule, and Mountainside has been easy to schedule with, and is responsive and clear in their communication. We are very thankful to have found a great teacher and a great company to work with! I highly recommend both Darian and Mountainside Music Academy!

As a grandmother who wanted to give my grandson, Jackson, additional support in his early musical exploration, I decided to seek lessons with Mountainside Music Academy. I can say that so far everything is going well for him. Jackson is really enjoying his weekly trombone lessons with Zoe.  She seems easy to work with, communicates well with him and is really supportive and encouraging while challenging him to be more bold in his play.  He likes to do well so it's nice to see him pushing himself to improve, she seems to be motivating him. He smiles and seems really happy when he talks about his lessons.  He has even played a few "concerts" for the family. So far we are very pleased with the experience, and it is wonderful to see him enjoying playing his trombone.

We live in Boulder, and have been working with Logan for 4 months now and have had the most positive experience! My daughter is 15yrs old and took a 6 year break from the violin, so returning brought up the frustration of not being "as good as she remembers", having to start a few steps back, and not progressing as fast as she remembers. My daughter was met with extraordinary amounts of empathy and encouragement, and was really met where she was. I remember the first lessons Logan sitting on the floor gently re-introducing my daughter to her instrument, fast forward a few short months and she is preparing for her first recital with Mountainside Music Academy. I could not be more pleased with our experience. My 11 year old has been working with Jerry on the piano for about the same amount of time. Previously we tried 6 months of online/zoom piano lessons that focused primarily on ear training. Jerry has transitioned my 11 year old to reading music, paying attention to dynamics and tempo. The progress has been rapid and altogether astonishing, but the best part is my kid is looking forward to the next lesson, Jerry is able to make challenges fun and worthwhile. I especially enjoy when he introduces music outside of the normal lesson book, to show, for example, that a Satie piece really is accessible and you don't always need cartoons on your sheet music. Again, I could not be more pleased with our experience.

My daughters have been with Mountainside for violin lessons for years and it has been nothing short of amazing. The convenience of having the instructors come to the house is great. Our current teacher, Theresa, is amazing with the girls. She helps to encourage excitement about playing and the kids practice willingly!

We have had a wonderful experience with Mountainside Music. Our kids have had ukulele classes with Theresa and she is such a patient and great teacher for them. They have really made progress with her and look forward to her visit each week. Highly recommend her and this company.

My son has been taking trombone lessons with Ben through Mountainside music since the late summer. Ben is a nice teacher who talks about music in a very different way from his music teacher in school, and it is always so lovely to see him and listen to my son's playing improve.

MMA offers great piano lessons! Austin (he is very good and also great with kids) has been teaching our 6 year old daughter for the past few months and she is doing super. He comes home and teaches in Boulder. Within a short span of time she can play songs and read music - yayy!

We live in Boulder, and have been working with Logan for 4 months now and have had the most positive experience! My daughter is 15yrs old and took a 6 year break from the violin, so returning brought up the frustration of not being "as good as she remembers", having to start a few steps back, and not progressing as fast as she remembers. My daughter was met with extraordinary amounts of empathy and encouragement, and was really met where she was. I remember the first lessons Logan sitting on the floor gently re-introducing my daughter to her instrument, fast forward a few short months and she is preparing for her first recital with Mountainside Music Academy. I could not be more pleased with our experience. My 11 year old has been working with Jerry on the piano for about the same amount of time. Previously we tried 6 months of online/zoom piano lessons that focused primarily on ear training. Jerry has transitioned my 11 year old to reading music, paying attention to dynamics and tempo. The progress has been rapid and altogether astonishing, but the best part is my kid is looking forward to the next lesson, Jerry is able to make challenges fun and worthwhile. I especially enjoy when he introduces music outside of the normal lesson book, to show, for example, that a Satie piece really is accessible and you don't always need cartoons on your sheet music. Again, I could not be more pleased with our experience.

Becca teaches our twin boys piano and they are thriving under her guidance. She gives them autonomy, support, and the techniques they need to excel. They always look forward to lessons and showing her what they’ve accomplished. We’ve done piano lessons elsewhere, and we are so happy we switched! Additionally, we were recommended to Mountainside Academy by friends who are learning piano and ukulele, and that family is also extremely pleased with their teacher.

I cannot recommend Becca highly enough as a music instructor! She has been teaching our boys saxophone and piano for the past few months and we are so impressed with her professionalism and skill. Becca is always on-time for lessons and comes to our house, which is incredibly convenient for our busy family. Her warm and friendly demeanor immediately put our boys at ease and they have made amazing progress under her tutelage. What sets Becca apart is her ability to teach with patience and clarity, making complex musical concepts accessible to our boys. She is an experienced musician herself and her passion for music shines through in every lesson. Overall, we feel incredibly fortunate to have Becca as our music instructor and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional teacher. Thank you, Becca, for all that you do!

We can’t recommend our teacher, Krescent, from Mountainside Music enough. There just aren’t words! Our son was brand new to signing and pretty nervous - but he wanted to try it so we took a chance. Krescent is such a high level instructor and could teach a pro! But, she treated our newbie with respect and care and made him feel so comfortable. He has come so far over the summer! It’s just priceless to hear him singing not only around the house now but ON STAGE! Thank you Krescent and thank you Mountainside Music!!!

We have LOVED our experience with Mountainside music. Our 13 year old is thriving in guitar, and she looks forward to every lesson because she excited to learn new techniques. She had been teaching herself over the past few years off and on, but Now with teaching and new techniques she doesn’t want to out the guitar down. Our teacher is Daniel Florez, who does a fantastic job of encouraging her and showing her new proper technique so that she can go further. We live in Lafayette, Co. 100% recommend!

Upon my retirement, having time on my hands, I decided to return to playing the piano after an absence from the instrument of almost 25 years. I had previously taken lessons as an adult learner and gained some limited proficiency, but had to quit as the demands of work and life took over. Now having spent the past couple of years coming back up to speed on the instrument, I felt that I could use some help to advance further than I had previously and contacted Mountainside Music Academy. Mountainside connected me to Paul Zeller, who now comes to my house weekly. The experience has been fantastic. I love playing on my own piano and in surroundings in which I am comfortable. Paul is an excellent teacher: friendly, knowledgable, patient, and able to approach problems from a variety of different perspectives. As an adult learner, it's clear I will never be making waves as a musician - but, that's not really the point. Some instructors, however, could see this and quickly lose interest in guiding my efforts. Not Paul, he approaches each lesson with passion and a sincere interest in helping me achieve as much as I can. I am really fortunately to have found him through Mountainside Music Academy.

Mountainside Music Academy it the BEST! My 9 year old started trumpet in her school band this year! We wanted her to feel confident and really get the most out of the experience, so we reached out to Mountainside to find a trumpet teacher who could come to our house in Westminster and teach. Mountainside Music responded quickly and got us set up with Darian and an initial lesson that fit our schedule right away. Darian is a great teacher and has been instrumental in boosting my child's confidence and keeping up that feeling of fun that is sometimes hard to bring to learning music. We have a pretty complicated schedule, and Mountainside has been easy to schedule with, and is responsive and clear in their communication. We are very thankful to have found a great teacher and a great company to work with! I highly recommend both Darian and Mountainside Music Academy!

As a grandmother who wanted to give my grandson, Jackson, additional support in his early musical exploration, I decided to seek lessons with Mountainside Music Academy. I can say that so far everything is going well for him. Jackson is really enjoying his weekly trombone lessons with Zoe.  She seems easy to work with, communicates well with him and is really supportive and encouraging while challenging him to be more bold in his play.  He likes to do well so it's nice to see him pushing himself to improve, she seems to be motivating him. He smiles and seems really happy when he talks about his lessons.  He has even played a few "concerts" for the family. So far we are very pleased with the experience, and it is wonderful to see him enjoying playing his trombone.
