Where your child studies matters.

Children hear a song or watch someone perform and think, “I want to do that.” Music lessons should help them get there, but the wrong experience can leave that excitement unfulfilled.

experiences like…

  • Years of lessons, little progress

    Without a curriculum that builds musical understanding and keeps children engaged, families can invest years in lessons without seeing the progress they hoped for.

  • Habits that hold them back

    Sloppy technique is quick to pick up and difficult to undo, eventually causing a child's progress to stall, and sometimes leading them to give up altogether.

  • Learning in isolation

    When music is just private lessons and practice at home, children miss the skills, friendships, and encouragement that come from making music with others.

We built YAMP to help your child turn
“I wish I could” into “I can.”

Why families
choose YAMP.

  • YAMP's programs are built around a carefully sequenced concept-based curriculum that allows flexibility while building skills step-by-step.
  • Music was meant to be shared! Through group classes, ensembles, performances, and more, students make music together, build friendships, and find a place to belong.
  • Many music “schools” hire teachers as independent contractors, with limited authority to direct how those teachers work. When each teacher operates separately, without shared curriculum, training, or planning, that’s not a music school—it’s a teacher broker.

    YAMP is truly a music school. We hire our teachers as employees so we can teach, plan, and grow together as a faculty. From curriculum and teacher development to performances and parent communication, we work together to support your child’s progress.

  • At YAMP, we emphasize technique from the very beginning, giving students the foundation they need to eventually play any style of music they want––whether they end up being hobbyists or professionals.
  • Students at YAMP don’t just learn to play songs. They learn how music works through music theory and ear training, explore their creativity through improvisation, and build fluency through technical studies. They also have the opportunity to make music with others, and share what they’ve learned through informal and formal performances.

our story

We built the school we always wished existed.

Michael & Agnes

Our beginnings

Two teachers,
one living room.

Professional musicians Michael and Agnes Giuliani have been investing in young musicians since the early 2000s. When they outgrew their home studio, they set out to build the school they always wished existed.

Our new home

2024

YAMP
is founded.

They brought together exceptional teachers, thoughtful, structured training, and a vibrant musical community to help young musicians discover their potential—and build the skills and confidence to create, perform, and make music their own.
