Music are flexibly
tailored to meet each student’s
needs. We provide students with instructions for different styles
of music, comprehensive materials for students at different
accomplished levels from beginner, intermediate, to advanced; and for
different age groups including both adults and children. Private
instruction is offered Monday - Sunday throughout the year in the
following instruments:
* Piano * Guitar * Flute * Violin *
Recorder
* Clarinet * Saxophone * Drum * Vocal *
- We skillfully
designed Piano
Private Lesson Beginner Book and Finger Exercises for
every beginner piano students. A Music Theory book
is also designed to be used as a supplemental aids to private
instructions to enhance students music knowledge and establish a
solid ground for further studies.
- Furthermore, we compiled a list of music books
for both our teachers and
parents/students. This list categories music books available
from our studio, into different achievement levels with estimated time
to complete learning of each book, different styles such as
classical, popular, jazz, blues, march, ragtime, Broadway, and Disney
songs, and different levels of technical trainings. This
broad coverage of our
piano literature allows your children to explore all different
styles
of music. With this list, parents are assured that the
progress of their children are closely benchmarked, and teachers have
the whole picture when to give the best material to fit the
students needs.
- Conservatory
trained, and
experienced teachers, most of them with advanced degrees as Masters or
Doctors in Performance or Music Education, in Greater Boston area, as
well as our well-thought-out instructions and programs give our
students and parents the most satisfactory learning experience.
- We are
offering the private lessons taught in
your own home. Our teachers are willing to travel to your
home and give the lessons in your home, the environment that your
children are familiar and feeling safe. The convenience and time
saving without your efforts bringing your children out to our studio is
very welcomed from some of our students and their parents. We
only charge extra $10 per visit. If you have more than one
children taking private lessons, this is a great feature for your
convenience.
- Performance is
an essential part
of music student's education. Happy Music provides two concerts
each year. One in January and the other one in June. This
performance opportunity is available for all private and group program
students. It's a great time to share the results of their hard
work and commitment with family and friends.
Semi-Private lesson
Starting from
this year, we began to offer semi-private lessons for siblings or
friends who are able to have the lessons together. Students in
the same lesson should have
similar age and level to be able to learn it with fun and efficiency.
These
lessons will be good for 2 or 3 kids in the same class to learn the
music
together. These semi private lessons can be either for Keyboard,
Guitar, Violin,
or Vocal. Semi-private lessons are for very
young kids as well. Please call to check
the time and studio availability.

Music
Workshop
- We have received comments from the
private lesson parents saying that they
want us to provide more theory teaching and help to find ways to
motivate their kids to practice at home. In answer to these
comments,
we plan to have once a month workshops to all our students starting
from September 06.
- This
program is designed for the students to have chances learning with
other kids together. This program is
composed of Music Theory, Ear
Training, Singing and solfege, Music Composition, Music Appreciation,
Music Games, sharing and listening to performance of other children,
and the sharing with other students/parents of the learning and
practicing experience at home.
- Music
Workshop will be 60 minutes sessions , held once a month on each of the
second Sunday afternoon. Parents can join the session at the
last 15
minutes. The design of this format is to allow parents to know
what
they learn in these workshop and to meet other parents and
discuss/share the learning experience. Each class will have 6-8 kids
only. The tuition for Music Workshop will be $120 for 5 sessions with
materials. This
will be of great benefits to all our students.
Ensemble Friends
- Ensemble music is fun. Ensemble music playing
fosters young musicians to listen to other player playing music
together, along with his or her own playing, to make better music.
Ensemble music also gives young musicians the experience of
harmonious sound together with others. Ensemble music also
requires every young musicians to play in tune with each other, and
play in beat, together with each other. So ensemble music is not
only fun to play together, it is also a must have learning experience
about music for young musicians.
- Happy Music is offering Ensemble Friends starting in
February 2012. This program will be 5 60 minutes sessions on the
second Sunday afternoons. The students can bring in their own
instruments, as many of our students are taking music lessons for
multiple instruments. Students will play together with other students
with the music which we will provide. Students will play
instruments such as piano, violin, cello, guitar, recorder, keyboard,
percussions, and /or even sing together with other students. We
will learn how to keep the tempo steady and together, and everyone has
the opportunity to play solo. Sight-reading of music and properly
following the conducting are also part of the training. If
you will, we can even allow the rotation of instruments so that
students can experience playing in different parts and listening to
others.
- This program is fun, and a lot learn from this
program. Tuition for Ensemble Friends is $120 for 5 hourly
sessions, which includes all the music we will use in the classes.
