4. A proven track record of excellence.
Visit our testimonial page to see what our students are saying. Every year, aspiring music teachers start their own studio, and a year or two later it’s closed. We have a proven track record of offering quality guitar, voice, singing, piano, drum, violin, saxophone, flute and clarinet lessons in New City, NY, year round. Our full time mission is teaching music lessons, trusted by hundreds of families for 5 years.
5. A comfortable waiting room for parents.
With over 1,700 square feet, we have the most spacious and parent friendly waiting area in the Rockland County. Instead of waiting in a music retail store showroom, or a cramped hallway, our clients enjoy a spacious, professional parent’s lounge with comfortable chairs, kids toys, free Wi-Fi, magazines and bottled water service. We also provide large observation windows for every room so that you can watch your child’s lesson while you wait. Or if you prefer, you can sit in on the lessons at anytime.
6. Fully stocked lesson rooms.
Our rooms are stocked with everything you need for lessons, including amps, full drum kits with pads, keyboards, pianos, and more. We have spent thousands of dollars on our studio for everything you need for music lessons!
7. Free, all inclusive recitals.
Every parent just wants to know how their child is doing and if they are really progressing. The best way for a parent to understand if their investment in lessons is really worth it is to have their child participate in a recital. In June and December, many of our students choose to perform in our biannual recitals. We hold these locally so you don’t have to travel far for a top-notch recital experience. Our recital location has a grand piano, so piano students are not playing on just a keyboard. Our sound system ensures a quality experience for all! Unlike other schools, parents never have to pay admission or any related fees for these recitals.
8. Professional office staff to serve you.
We strive to bring you the best customer service possible, 7 days a week. We are continually adding hours to ensure that our desk staff is able to assist you when you call or come to the studio! Most music lesson providers do not provide front desk staff, but we have full time desk staff who are available at the front desk to assist you during ALL lessons, quickly and professionally. Excellent customer service is what sets us apart!
9. Conveniently located on Main Street in New City!
Due to its central location, our school is convenient and draws students from New City, Congers, Spring Valley, Nanuet, Clarkstown, Haverstraw and Valley Cottage. We are easy to find, right off Route 304 in New City near Shop Rite and Main Street Cafe with shopping and restaurants close by.
10. Picture Day
We are the only music school that offers a picture day for their students! Every year, we host a free picture day with a professional photographer. We want to celebrate your music and share that memory through pictures. Examples pictured on this page! Adults are welcome too! Students can bring their instruments to the photo shoot and wear whatever they like.
11. Trophies, certificates and award wristbands to celebrate achievement.
We are the only music school in Rockland County that gives their students the opportunity to earn special color wristband bracelets (kids and teens love them!), trophies and certificates for passing musical tests. Do other schools offer trophies and certificates? A few. But none of them inspire their students with smiling faces by giving them full color, really cool “Musical Ladder” wristbands that they can show off to their friends.
More importantly, when our students have a test coming up, they practice more, their parents are proud, their teachers are proud, and everybody wins. You can only get the Musical Ladder here. We also specialize in music lessons for adults. We don’t think learning music should be boring–it should be fun!
12. Make Up Classes
Missed a lesson? Out of town? No problem. Just sign up for our weekend classes. They never expire, and you can come when it’s convenient for you.
13. Early morning and lunch time lessons for homeschoolers, retirees, college students and working professionals.
Since we are the largest school in New City, we are able to be a ‘full service’ music school. This allows us to offer lessons as early as 9 a.m. and we see many students between the hours of 11 a.m.- 2 p.m. If you are a homeschool parent, retiree, college student or working professional who has a flexible schedule, take advantage of our early morning and lunch time lesson spots.
14. Month to Month Lessons!
Our desire is to inspire our students with the love of music. We do this through teachers and music that our students love. Unlike other programs, we do not require semester minimums for lessons. You can begin anytime! To stop lessons, we just need 30 days’ written notice.
15. Family Safety Plan
Every parent is concerned about their children’s safety and well-being. The New City School of Music has invested thousands of dollars in our “5-Point Family Safety Plan” which helps parents ease their minds while their kids are at their music lessons. You may rest assured that your children are safe while taking lessons at the New City School of Music.
Our “5-Point Family Safety Plan” consists of…
