We are a family owned music school. We strive to provide the highest quality of music education in every instrument we offer. Unlike some other music schools, our focus is not on the size of our student body, but on the quality of our education. What separates us is that QCMS does not simply rent its Studio rooms to just any teacher that comes our way. Our instructors are handpicked by the QCMS Director and undergo rigorous screening and (upon acceptance) training. We invest time and effort in finding the best Instructors as we know that they truly make all the difference in the quality of music education you will receive at QCMS! We draw our staff from the best and brightest of top music schools and conservatories across the world. We take pride in selecting instructors that are not only highly qualified but also passionate, enthusiastic and energetic about teaching their students. Positive energy attitude is our motto at QCMS. It guarantees to keep your and/or your child’s attention during your and/or their lessons while making each lesson fun and enjoyable.

At QCMS we provide comprehensive music education. Unlike other music schools, we teach our Students not only how to play the instrument, but also how to develop an appreciation of music that will last them a lifetime. To achieve those results there are many factors involved. Firstly, we make sure that each student is paired with the right instructor. Good chemistry and understanding between Student and Teacher in one-on-one music lessons is crucial. Secondly, we strongly emphasize music fundamentals and make sure that all lessons are tailored to each student’s interests and goals. Lastly, we handpick our instructors to assure the highest quality education at QCMS. Our teachers are dedicated to nurturing their student’s abilities and helping them realize their fullest artistic and technical potential. Most importantly, each and every student we have is a priority to us.

Recitals are a crucial element in musical education. We strive to provide our students with opportunities to perform on the stage frequently. Performing is a way to reward each student with the commitment and work they put into learning the instrument. It is also a great opportunity for parents and families to see the progress their child has made. However while performing is fun for some, it could be a stressful experience for others. At QCMS, we will also teach you how to overcome stage fright and enjoy performing on the stage. We believe that frequent public performances help students overcome a fear of public performance. We offer a minimum of one recital each session (Spring, Summer, Fall Sessions) and provide many other performance opportunities to students seeking more frequent stage appearance.

Also, unlike other music schools in the area, QCMS offers music lessons in the comfort of your own home. If you are seeking a professional and positive teacher to provide music lessons in the convenience of your own home you are at the right place. Our In-Home Lessons are designed for busy parents, adult students and young professionals who do not have time to commute to lessons every week. We know how precious time can be, therefore we created In-Home Lesson Program that saves you commute time by providing lessons in your home. Please note that In-Home lessons availability is limited and In-Home lessons are $10 extra each lesson.

We offer private music lessons for children with special needs. We are fortunate to live in a world where children with learning differences have equal access to education opportunities. Each special needs student is different, unique and requires a child-specific approach to learning which QCMS is proud to offer.
