Adult Lessons

Adult Music Lessons in Albuquerque

Whether you are fulfilling a lifelong dream to play music, or returning to an instrument after many years, the New Mexico School of Music is here to help you on your musical journey.  Our instructors teach students of all ages and abilities, from beginners through advanced, and on virtually all instruments plus voice!  Study the type of music that interests you - from classical to pop, jazz to Latin, musical theater to opera!

Private weekly lessons provide a one-on-one experience with a highly-trained instructor.  Lessons are available in 30, 45, and 60 minute lengths.  A family discount is available for families with two or more students enrolled.  Busy adults may be interested in our "flex-plan" of lessons.  Pay for a group of lessons in advance, and then schedule them at your convenience with your instructor.

Informal and fun Adult Musical Cafés are held twice a year for those who would like to share their music with others.
