This is my third attempt at learning how to play the piano and this time I'm loving it! It's all because of Wayland! He is an outstanding teacher. I've learned more about piano in the last 6 months than I ever have before. I would highly recommend Wayland as a piano teacher.

The best experience! My daughter is taking vocal lessons with Mr. Achille. I was so shocked at how quick she became so confident in her vocals and knowledge on what to do. We will continue taking her to the best music school! Thank you guys for being great!

Ms. Bruckner is very kind and patient with my kids. We have seen a tremendous improvement in their piano skills in such a short period of time, and couldn’t be happier. Ms. Bruckner truly cares about her students, and that makes a big difference.

We love our lessons with BCC School of Music! The administration and staff are incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and enthusiastic about what they teach. Such wonderful people! My children love their time there! We can’t imagine going anywhere else! Centrally located in the upper Kirby area. Comfortable room for parents and siblings to wait (and listen a little!). Tons of easy parking!

Sarah is an excellent piano teacher. She is skilled in working with children and is able to identify their strengths and weaknesses quickly. She can keep even her youngest students on-task and is able to help them grow in their music education appropriately. We are pleased with our children's progress under Sarah's guidance.

Samira will meet you right where you are! She structured the lessons based on exactly what I needed and where I was getting stuck. She came to lessons from a very grounded somatics place, noticing where I was getting stuck in my head, where I needed to ground in my body, and where I simply needed more practice.

I like that my children get an emotional musicality and artistic flair to their playing and an appreciation for how music “feels” instead of just playing notes perfectly.
