Apollo Music We are a Music Educational Facility that helps teach students beyond playing notes and rhythm. We help our students understand music, not only as a means of personal expression, but about the soulful and intellectual pleasure that can be achieved both by the student and their audience. Through this process, Apollo Music is dedicated to helping ad to the entire successful development of our students.



Our philosophy emphasizes learning the art of music in a fun and relaxing structured environment. We focus on the individual, helping each student reach his or her own personal goals. This is carried out by our staff of professional instructors chosen for their ability to help students develop their creative thinking, build confidence and nurture self-expression. Students at Apollo Music have the opportunity to explore all styles of music at any level. Our students consist of children, teenagers and adults of all ages. We can help a high school student prepare for college auditions and solo contests, teach improvisation, theory, sight reading, insight for auditioning, rehearsing, performing or simply provide the basics, all while laying a foundation of proper technique and music understanding.
