New School of Music
About
The New School of Music is an inclusive, nonprofit community music school in Cambridge for children and adults of every age and level, from first-time learners to students with decades of experience. Lessons cover piano, violin, guitar, voice and more, and teachers work across classical, jazz, pop and musical theatre. Instructors adapt to each student’s learning style and goals in a student-centered setting that encourages people to come as they are.
The school has been teaching for about 50 years and rests on the belief that music can be enjoyed, studied and understood by anyone, regardless of ability or prior experience. Offerings include private lessons, group classes, ensembles, recitals and other events, plus summer and school vacation programs. Prospective students can take a trial lesson or attend a free recital to get a feel for the school before signing up.
