That’s why we put so much emphasis on developing relationships with our students and their families.
At Excel Music, we pride ourselves on offering more than just a music store experience. We are a music SCHOOL, dedicated to providing a high-quality education in a comfortable, scholastic atmosphere. We know that your family’s music education is the most important thing, which is why we go above and beyond to build relationships with our students and their families.
We also provide the convenience of having all the books, strings, and drum sticks you need to support your lessons, all at reasonable prices. But we never forget the importance of making sure that you get the best possible education from people who really care. That’s why we put so much emphasis on developing relationships with our students and their families.
These pre-school music classes offer a fun and engaging environment for children ages 18 months to 4 years—the ones that are too young for private music lessons—to explore music. Each semester includes a variety of activity-packed classes to accommodate various learning styles. Students will begin to learn the fundamentals of music through listening, singing, clapping, rhythm instruments, movement and play. We have combined aspects of the most trusted music education methods to create a truly unique, engaging, and complete curriculum.
Because each semester and class is varied, it is not necessary to have different levels within each age group.

String Lessons
The viola is the larger, lower-voiced cousin of the violin. Students are generally not ready to play violin or viola until they are 6 due to the coordination required to play—although, smaller size versions of both are also available for smaller or younger students that have an interest. (ask an associate for a size chart to help you choose the right size instrument for your child).
We recommend age 8 as a great age to start learning cello. Younger students can find the instrument quite uncomfortable to play—even if they can get their arms around one of the smaller instruments that are available—because it requires a fair amount of pressure to hold down the strings. At the right age, however, learning cello can be very satisfying because learning an actual 'song' can happen a bit sooner than with other instruments.

Voice Lessons
Voice lessons teach the student proper breathing techniques, projection, control and how to prevent damage to the vocal cords.
With other instruments, a blister on a finger or sore muscle from holding it in place is about the most trouble you can have. Singing incorrectly, however, can actually cause a callus (called a “node”) on the vocal cords. This can make the voice sound constantly gruff and make singing almost impossible. Curing a node requires prolonged silence, or even surgery. That's why voice lessons are so important for singers at all ages and levels.
