Mini Music Maestros at St. Matthias School

At Musical Chairs Studio, we believe in nurturing creativity and fostering a love for music in every child. Our early childhood music class is designed to prepare your little ones for private instrument lessons and also ignite children's musical interests.

Our curriculum has been finely tuned through 20 years of experience. With a focus on 4 key areas through fun, age-appropriate activities, we ensure that every child enjoys the process of discovering their musical potential. Our students emerge not just as musicians, but as lifelong lovers of music!
