“dedicated & talented teachers have opened up to us the world of music excellence”
I strongly, and without reservation recommend Grace Notes School of Music to anyone looking for quality music instruction. Two of my grandchildren started at the school with no music background and have progressed steadily under the tutelage of their skilled and experienced teachers. After the very first semester of study they were ready and encouraged to perform in a recital. Other opportunities to perform are made available through examinations and competitions and subsequent recitals. The school also has summer camps and a chamber music program where the students enjoy working in groups and have more opportunity to advance their skills. With the encouragement of their excellent teachers, both of my “grands” are now involved in the Louisiana Youth Orchestras and hope to continue that through college.
I feel very grateful to have found Grace Notes School of Music. Their dedicated and talented teachers have opened up to us the world of music excellence and are instilling in their students a love of and appreciation for all genres of music. Bravo Grace Notes!!

“they go above and beyond teaching”
My daughter started learning music at Grace Notes when she was 8. We have been associated with them for over 4 years now. The teachers are phenomenal! They go above and beyond in teaching and also work very closely with parents on the child’s progression in music. They have good curriculum and the school presents a lot of performance opportunities to it’s students. The flexibility in re/scheduling lessons, prompt response and above all the feedback on student progress after every lesson makes this school the best music school in Baton Rouge! Would highly recommend learning at Grace Notes!

I like taking music lessons at Grace Notes School of Music, because I love my teachers. They challenge me to succeed in piano performance and composition. Mrs. Elisa is very funny and encouraging. When I mess up she helps me fix it. Mr. Corey helps me understand musical composition, notes and rhythms. He plans special surprises for me when I reach a goal.

“Grace Notes gave me the opportunity to pursue my goal”
As an adult, there is a degree of hesitation when it comes to going back to "school" in any form, especially when students and teachers are much younger. However, Grace Notes has given me the special opportunity to pursue my goal of learning to play the cello as a mature adult. The school is very welcoming and offers an exceptional standard. I started with Grace Notes as little more than a raw beginner and after only six months I am now playing pieces that I wouldn't have dreamed of attempting for years. My wonderful teacher pushes me perfectly and provides quality support and direction at every step. — Lesley, private strings student
“Instructors are highly educated”
My children have studied at Grace Notes School of Music for over eight years receiving priceless quality, musical instruction with various instruments. The faculty are highly educated (most with master and doctorate degrees) also teaching at local universities as well. The instructors have a strong, base method in their musical approach to instruction combined with their unusual ability to customize to teach child's individual needs and abilities. The studio is an irreplaceable joy and enrichment in my children's lives. — Heidi, a parent 2016
"they sincerely enjoy working with the kids"
Grace Notes is a wonderful place. Not only are the faculty top-notch, they sincerely enjoy working with the kids. They create strong bonds with their pupils helping the last to succeed and advance.
My child has been studying in the school for two years now. I have only praises and gratitude to the piano and string faculty for their regular classes, youth string ensemble practices, great summer camps and end of semesters concerts. Please keep it going!

"Playing music a gift, but even better when shared"
The adult group strings class at Grace Notes is so much fun. Playing music is a gift, but one that is even better when shared. Aside from learning to play great music in an ensemble, guided by gentle and talented leaders, we also get to meet new people and have a few chuckles along the way
