Where your child studies matters.

The wrong choice costs a family more than tuition: years that don't come back, habits that have to be undone, and a child who gives up before finding out what they could do.

It doesn't have to go that way. That's why we built YAMP.

  • Wasted time and money

    Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for students to spend a handful of years in music lessons with little to show for it, only to burn out and quit in the end. At YAMP, clear milestones mean progress you can actually see.

  • Habits that have to be undone

    Sloppy technique is quick to pick up and slow to fix. The next teacher spends months unwinding it before your child can move forward again.

  • Skills that don't transfer

    Some schools teach a student to perform a handful of songs in one style and stop there. Without real technique underneath, that is the only music they will ever be able to play.

  • A lost opportunity

    Most kids who walk away from music don't decide they dislike it. They decide they aren't any good at it, and they never find out what they were capable of.

Let's find your child's path.

Private lessons, group classes and ensembles — for the child who has never held an instrument and the one who already knows what they want to play. Narrow it down by age, instrument and format, and see what fits.

Need help deciding?

Tell us a little about your child and we'll help you find the right fit.

It has been such a joy watching her learn and play music and there is no one better to teach than Mrs. Agnes. She truly has a gift and is one of the most sincere, talented, kindest instructors we’ve ever come across.

our story

We built the school we always wished existed.

Our beginnings

Two teachers,
one living room.

Michael and Agnes Giuliani have been teaching 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.

Built on a conviction the founders had carried for years: young musicians deserve more than a weekly lesson left to chance.

look at us now :)

Today

120+
students later.

Lessons, recitals, and a community built on shared music, with a lot more planned for the years ahead.

Dear Parent,

Putting your child in music is one of the best things you can do for them. It won't always be easy. There will be slow weeks, and weeks they want to quit. We'll be there for those. They'll build confidence, make friends they'd never have met, and might surprise you with how much they love it.

Come see what the journey looks like.

With you for all of it,

Michael & Agnes
