Highly recommend ebony and ivory music school. We have been there for the past 6 years now and I can see how far my children have come. I have 2 girls there since they were 9 and 11 they are now 16 and 18 and we couldn’t be happier than being a part of this wonderful place. The teachers are professional and the music production is phenomenal. I highly recommend this school to anyone interested in music.

Gerardo is an amazing Piano teacher. He has a calm, kind energy and possesses positive leadership skills.
