"Music education should be available to everyone and the school should be the centre of musical encounters"
|
Parents and children feel welcome at our school, because of our personal approach. Our school is well-known for its relaxed ambiance as well as its high level of professionalism. Our dedicated team of top-notch teachers guarantee music education of the highest level.
Rob discovered during his many years of playing and teaching that music has a profound impact on people of all ages. In 1997 he decided to found his own school, based on a view that was new in the Leiden area. He found a suitable venue at Draadbaan 29, Leiderdorp and gathered a team of teachers who share his fundamental philosophy:
Music education should be available to everyone and the school should be the centre of musical encounters.
Alex also studied at the College of Higher Art Education in Utrecht, where he graduated cum laude in 2004. Besides his teaching job, Alex composes and produces music for film, television and animations. He welcomes not only piano students, but also students interested in learning to compose or to produce music.
At this moment he plays live shows across the country. In these shows the band only plays requests - a huge challenge for the musicians. Alex is a born teacher, with great enthusiasm, endless patience and highly valued didactic skills.
Alex: 'Drop by for a trial lesson to see if guitar is an instrument for you or to see how we can bring your playing skills to a higher leven'.
