Northern Music Centre offers private tuition in a wide range of musical instruments, including piano, keyboard, saxophone, clarinet, flute, drums and many more.
We currently teach in excess of 450 students per week and have taught over 330,000 individual lessons since we opened in September 1996.
Our youngest student is 6, our oldest over 80! Over 40% of our students are adults – many starting to learn an instrument for the first time. We have seven dedicated teaching studios, each equipped with pianos, both acoustic and digital.
All tuition is given on a one-to-one basis. This allows the teacher to tailor the lesson to the individual student – working on the weaknesses and building on the strengths.
Most students have a 30 minute lesson each week. Some students, especially those who are working at an advanced level, or those who travel a distance to the Centre for their lessons, may require longer.
The NMC is an examination centre for both the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music and Trinity College of Music. Students interested in entering for either practical or theory examinations are encouraged to do so. However, exams are not obligatory – many students preferring not to take this option.
We know what it is like to learn a new instrument, and we know what it is like to strive to improve on your skill. So, let us help you with your musical journey on the keyboard. Our keyboard lessons are taught in an equiped studio with good equipment.
The keyboard was developed in the early 1960's. It is one of the most popular instruments in the world and is widely used in pop and jazz music.
Our keyboard lessons cover all aspects of playing. You can learn simply for fun, to support your education and we can also offer you industry training and contacts as part of your lessons to help you get started as a gigging musician.
The desire to create music is a natural urge and for many the Keyboard is an obvious choice of instrument. Capable of producing beautiful sounds, it fits across virtually all genres. Producing delicate, single-note melody lines or rich, polyphonic textures.
Pupils may start on electric keyboard from year 2. It may be more appropriate for lessons to be taken as a pair or individually but if resources allow, small group lessons are possible.
