Music Conservatory Of Westchester

I was away from the music world for many years and this school reminded me how much I love the piano. Dr Bonaire is my music teacher and he has transformed my approach to making music. This is the third year we are together and I hope there will be many more joyous years in the future.

Paulina has been taking her clarinet lessons on Zoom with Dr. Douglas Bish since the lockdown. The first class on Zoom Paulina had to adjust the sound because her professor couldn’t hear the clarinet well, after that adjustment the sound on Zoom has work well for us all these months. One day the image got frozen and they had to end the lesson 10 minutes earlier. Other than that we are happy with virtual lessons. I have seen a lot of improvements in Paulina’s playing. Also, she is more dedicated, responsible and enjoys playing her clarinet every day. She is learning in every and she is happy. We are happy with virtual lessons because Paulina can continue her lessons and learn without taking the risk of getting sick.

I have been an adult student for over two years at MCW. The quality of instruction is very high caliber and the instructors have impressive backgrounds. Despite the pandemic I am continuing lessons via Zoom. I miss coming into the conservatory and hearing music throughout the building, but am grateful that I can continue studying. Wonderful community of adult and younger students.

My son wanted to learn drum sets early last year, but I didn't have a clue on how to find a suitable drum teacher. I asked some of my friends for advice and they strongly recommended the Music Conservatory of Westchester, where their kids took music lessons. The MCW staff was very welcoming and set up a tryout lesson immediately. My son took his lesson with Mr. Robinson and enjoyed it. Mr. Robinson was extremely nice and very patient. He has an excellent background in music and knows how to teach it well. He believes every student can reach his/her full potential. When my son didn't think he was good enough to join the middle school jazz band, Mr. Robinson encouraged him to try out. After some persuasion, my son relented and is now one of the drummers in the band. When the school was closed due to the pandemic, Mr. Robinson offered online classes right away. My son was able to continue his education without any interruption. Additionally, the MCW's "Keep the Music Playing" virtual concert was an amazing experience for my son. The MCW is a well-organized school and a wonderful environment to learn music.

My daughters absolutely love going to Music Conservatory of Westchester for the past five years. Both learned how to play the piano at the cute age of four and five. All staffs are simply amazing, friendly, and professional. Every year the Conservatory will have several recitals and performances to showcase students' achievements. Watching these talented kids perform is mind-blowingly cool. I love the fact our kids have the opportunity to choose her favorite songs to play at the performance. The most recent one was "Sun Flower by Post Malone" and "Star Wars Binary Sunset." Learning to play her favorites has immensely helped drive her piano passion. The Conservatory is also tech friendly. All performances are recorded and delivered straight to your registered email. As our kids grow, Music Conservatory of Westchester is also growing. Coming soon: Recording Studio, Digital Piano Lab, updated Percussion Studio, Multi-use Rehearsal Studio, and new Music Therapy Studio.
