Christiane is an awesome instructor and I highly recommend her if you're looking for a patient and thoughtful teacher. My nephew is energetic and likes to follow his own and Christiane allows him to follow his curiosity while also implementing instructions during his lessons. I have seen amazing growth and I look forward to my son continuing to work with Christiane on his piano lessons
Paul C.
Great lessons! Jeremy is fantastic with my son. He explains everything very well and sneaks in music theory!

Knauer Music School has been a supportive and well-organized place for instrumental lessons. Since my child began clarinet lessons nine months ago, his skills, appreciation, and love for music have grown, thanks to his encouraging and attentive teacher. Scheduling has been flexible and accommodating whenever I needed to reschedule a lesson. I wholeheartedly recommend Knauer to people looking for private music lessons!

I've been a studen at Knauer for about a couple years now ever since my old school went out of business, and I couldn't be happier with my experience here thus far. Lovely pianos everywhere you look asking to have a conversation with your hands, and a staff that is kind, understanding, and welcoming of all from any realm of musical background. Highly recommend Luke if you wish to expand your piano mastery!
Danielle B.
We've been taking music classes with Knauer Music School for a good 4 years now. Teacher Brian and teacher Larissa are fantastic and my kids love them! I love how they're diligent and accommodating, and how they're making my kids love learning music. The school staff is very friendly too!

I am new student with Knauer Music School taking voice lessons. The staff members are very nice and pro-active in answering your needs. My teacher is Javier Arriagada. I am so happy to have Javier as my teacher. He gets right to the heart of what I need. He gives me good feedback and provides me enough information each class that I can practice on my own to prepare for the next class. I highly recommend the Music School!
