Are we the right music school for you?

Lagond Music School is interested in making you a well-rounded, educated musician.

We also embrace the craft of writing original music, using recording software, as well as music production and composition studies. We embrace the art of performance with hosting nearly 100 gigs yearly. Students travel as far as 60-miles away to take lessons with us.
