–Mary, a BMF Parent
“It’s no surprise to me that this is one of the best music schools in town, likely even the whole country! Absolutely amazing teachers in their dedication to working with students of all ages and skill levels, and to music-making in general.” “

Why Everyone Needs to Play Music
Confidence
Music builds confidence. Every part of a musical group is essential and being part of that big picture is huge. Whether it’s one note , or a massive solo, the group needs you and pulling that off builds confidence. Huge confidence.
Communication
Music is about communication. Playing in a band isn’t that different from playing a sport when it comes to how essential it is to communicate with others. Get good at that, and you’ve got a skill you can use in music and beyond.
Fun
Music is ridiculously fun. Forget about the piano lessons you took as a kid that you begged to quit for years. Fun is one of the main two motivators for a child and there’s nothing more fun than playing music with your peers. These band classes are a blast!

“There are no stodgy recitals. Instead, the students have gigs, where they learn songs and accompany each other. I highly recommend you give BMF a try.”
