    Frequently asked questions

         At El Rey Music Center, our goal is to provide music lessons with qualified teachers in a positive environment that fosters lifelong appreciation and pursuit of music. And since we understand that lessons times occasionally conflict with special school or family events, we DO offer makeup lessons (unlike many other area schools) according to the guidelines below. It is important to us that both our clients' and our teachers' time be respected. Following the guidelines below not only helps to keep our staff and instructors sane, but also promotes steady progress for the student!
