How is Yamaha Different from Other Pre-School or Elementary School-Aged Programs?

Fun and Rewarding Children can have fun and achieve a high level of music proficiency

Play Performance opportunities are available in a wide variety of settings, from casual Saturday afternoon performance clubs and semester recitals to annual All-School Concerts and national or international concerts

Curriculum Materials include books, CD’s, DVD’s and other materials that combine decades of experience with the most recent research in music education.

International History We are part of a vibrant international network of Yamaha education centers in over 40 countries. More than 6 million students over 50 years have learned to play using the Yamaha method.
