Studying music in-home is a private, convenient, comprehensive, and engaging way to learn how to play a musical instrument, but sharing this experience with others – friends, family, and even strangers – is priceless. This is why SoundLife Music Academy puts on two student showcases every year along with numerous smaller concert performances throughout the year. This is also why we encourage parents, students, and friends to share in our blog and newsletter to help create an ongoing musical conversation!
SoundLife Music Academy offers our monthly newsletter for free and as well as weekly blogs! All you need to do is submit your email address below, and we'll take care of the rest. As an in-home music lesson provider, it is important for us to create a sense of community by sharing helpful, relevant information, as well as sharing the successes of our amazing students. Each issue includes a feature story that discusses helpful tips regarding a variety of subjects related to taking music lessons. We will also discuss upcoming local concerts in Los Angeles, company news and events, teacher performances, and student activities. A student a month is selected for each issue to share the work that he or she is doing in and outside of music lessons.
Subscribe now to receive our complimentary monthly newsletter, weekly blogs, and promotional discounts on music lessons. Our content is rich with encouragement and support for music students of all ages and their families, as well as those simply interested in positive music-related content.
