Welcome to the Bronx Conservatory of Music

"The magic of music in a community"

The Bronx Conservatory of Music is an all-borough music school offering private lessons to children and adults, in piano, voice, guitar, violin, viola, cello, bass, flute, recorder, clarinet, saxophone, oboe, trumpet, trombone, French horn, and percussion and orchestral instruments.

Mission Our mission is to give Bronx families access to the highest quality of music education, in their own neighborhoods, at the lowest possible cost.

Magic What makes us special is our teachers. They are graduates of the Juilliard School, the Manhattan School of Music, Mannes College of Music and the finest conservatories in Europe, the former Soviet Union—and throughout the world! Bronx Conservatory of Music teachers are chosen not only for their achievement as performers, but also for their experience and abilities as teachers. What makes us magic is that our school brings these teachers to families in the Bronx, at tuition costs that are much lower that those of comparable music schools.
