When my family had moved back to New-Haven my son wanted to continue to play violin. The school he was attending in New-Haven didnt offer string instruments.He was recommended for the Instrumental Impact program. He received 1/2 hour lessons once a week from a wonderful violin teacher Mark. The only issue I have is because my child is in this Impact program he Cannot change his instrument "EVER". I think this is absurd! why force a child to continue with an instrument when he wants to venture and try other options. My son is discouraged now and doesnt want to continue with the program. Music was a very big part of his daily routine and I feel bad that I cant afford to pay for the piano lessons that he wants. He told me not worry about. I did leave a message with the director Mr.Bloom and someone from the office called me and told that there was nothing Mr.Bloom could do about it. I really wish my sons school had a music program because it is a very important part of his life as it is for all children. So, sadly my son will not be apart of this program anymore. I urge parents to make sure they know all the information and ask more questions when enrolling your child in a program at NMS Impact program. I wish I had known this before he enrolled 3 yrs ago so he wouldnt have to be discouraged now. As a parent ,when a child has a positive interest , you try to do everything you can to encourage and support that interest. Its very hard when the Odds are against you !!

NMS offers suzuki and traditional music instruction, plus group music and dance classes for all ages from children to adults. Our children have taken suzuki violin and various group music and movement classes. We have had a phenomenal experience! The kids are engaged and challenged by the teachers who manage to push them to learn but also make it fun and exciting. The suzuki program includes both individual instruction and group lessons which creates a fantastic and complementary learning experience. Our son has gained so much confidence and comfort performing in front of others! It is always exciting to walk into the school building, especially on a Saturday morning. There is a great energy, lots of students and families of all ages and backgrounds, all excited to be a part of NMS. We HIGHLY recommend NMS for anyone in the greater New Haven area! It is a really creative and fun place with exceptional teachers and a wide range of programs.

Horrible teachers. One of the violin teachers would yell at me for not able to catch up like her other students. She would also dis-encourage me telling me that i wasnt meant to play violin. Then she would tell me that i was the worst student she ever had and i should just quit. The other staff is very friendly so i will give it a 3 star.

Ask for Craig Hartely for private Piano lessons. he is a touring artist The school is located in the arts district in NHV. They give Fin Aid to students who need, and they also love when people support them The have a awesome Concert Band who plays at battel Chapel in New Haven

The best place to learn about music, listen to any kind music and attend a wonderful event that supports good cause, which is to fulfill a childs wish to play music.

Attended as a youth. Did not fully take advantage of the opportunity. Awesome place. Many courses offered. Slightly expensive.
