Music Lessons
 

Garden Street School of the Performing Arts is a wonderful place to learn music.

With three recitals throughout the year and invitations to many special events in Hoboken, there is no shortage of performance opportunities. We will continue to monitor the new protocols for when we can hold our recitals and offer performance opportunities for our students.

We offer in person and online private music lessons. We adhere to the most strict Covid-19 safety protocols to ensure the health and well being of our students and staff. Your safety is our top priority at Garden Street Music.

Voice:

We offer beginner, intermediate, and advanced private vocal lessons for children and adults. We work with the most basic beginners who have never performed in front of an audience before - all beginners welcome! We also have vocal coaches for professional singers, or singers who are pursuing a singing career on any level. We inspire students to learn to sing by using traditional and creative techniques that ignite a passion for singing and practicing at home. We incorporate reading music, sight singing, technique, ear training, music theory, vocal exercises, and learning songs into each lesson. Voice lessons are for everyone, regardless of natural vocal ability. We teach you how to sing correctly, and reach your vocal potential. Ages 5 through adult.

Songwriting:

We offer songwriting with or without incorporating an instrument into the lessons. We help students develop their lyric skills, and music theory skills by building songs based on imagery, ideas, story telling, poetry, and self expression. We help students tap into their inner writer, and hone in on their natural abilities. We encourage students to express themselves individually, and find their voice to write their songs with their own words.  Musicality, timing, writing, and musicianship is incorporated in each lesson. Students will have the opportunity to perform their works themselves, or submit their songs to our Garden Street Live band for their end of the session concert. Selected songs will be recorded professionally in our state of the art recording studio.

"We have always found wonderful teachers at Garden Street Music. I have to say the most unique aspect has always been the wonderful ways in which children share what they have learned. From recitals to small studio nights, the atmosphere is designed to be relaxed and supportive as children practice performance skills surrounded by a community. " -Music Parent
