Individual Instruction

Individual Instruction

One-on-one Instruction is the most effective way to improve musical skills. Following an orientation meeting with our Program Coordinator or Dean, students are matched with an appropriate teacher who tailors instruction to best fit each student's needs and goals. Lessons are offered in all orchestral instruments, voice, piano, harp, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, electric bass, percussion, and Suzuki flute, violin, viola, and cello. Lessons are available Monday--Thursday during the afternoon and evenings and on Saturdays. Because a certain degree of physical development is essential to playing an instrument, Hochstein subscribes to the following minimum ages:

Guitar, age 5
Harp, age 9 (some prior piano study preferred)
Percussion, age 9
Piano, age 5
Strings, Suzuki, age 3
                traditional age 7
Voice, age 12
Wind instruments, age 9
           Suzuki flute, age 7

Acoustic piano (or a digital piano with 88 full-size, weighted keys) in the home required for piano lessons.

Children taking individual instruction at Hochstein qualify for the following discounted rates: $45 per quarter for one Music FUNdamentals or Children's Dance class.

All individual instruction is arranged by appointment with the Canadaigua Office.

Fees for Individual Instruction
$25*, 30 minute lesson

*These fees for children taking individual instruction may apply if household income exceeds $40,000; these fees for adults taking individual instruction may apply if household income exceeds $25,000. Reduced fees are available on a sliding scale, based on household income. We will be happy to discuss your or your child's musical education. Please call (585) 454-4596.
