“MUSIC Inc. has provided my son with the opportunity to not only learn how to play the violin and read music but it has also developed his confidence, persistence, ambition and love for music. I am grateful to MUSIC Inc. for helping my son develop into a well-rounded, self-motivated individual. The skills that he is learning can be applied through all facets of his life. It is just reinforcing what we are teaching him at home. I hope that MUSIC Inc. can continue to assist future students.”

“I love how MUSIC Inc programming has encouraged and strengthened my child’s self confidence. I have watched the students truly excel in their study and love of music. Programs like MUSIC Inc make a huge difference in keeping kids active, focused and off the streets.”
Tamala Hubbard, MUSIC Inc. Parent
“MUSIC inc has taught my young son so much about music! At first, I did not think that he was developmentally ready for learning how to play an instrument. But the teaching style is so laid-back and child-centered that the kids naturally and organically learn how to play an instrument. I cannot wait to see the progress that my son makes over the next year and so on!”
Alexis Nwankwo, MUSIC Inc. Suzuki Parent
“The MUSIC Inc. program has helped my child build her confidence in playing a musical instrument, as she has learned a new skill. Additionally, the program has allowed my child meet new people and friends. Every week, my kid is excited about attending he lessons. This program is one she looks forward to without any push from us as parents. Much of that is because of the wonderful staff.”
