Mountain Top Music Center offers private instruction for all band and orchestra instruments, as
well as piano, bass, acoustic and electric guitar, and drum set. Additionally, private lessons for
banjo, mandolin, dulcimer, harmonica, and ukulele are available with local folk musician Seth
Austen.
Private lessons are appropriate for students of all ages and abilities, and are an extremely
effective way to improve a musician’s solo and ensemble playing. Students enrolled in the
private lesson program have the opportunity to perform in recitals and informal gatherings
throughout the year.
Mountain Top Music Center’s private lesson faculty is comprised of outstanding teachers and
performers from the Mount Washington Valley and surrounding communities. The faculty at
MTMC shares the philosophy that great teaching and learning takes place in a constructive and
supportive environment. Lessons are tailored to the age and level of each student.
Private Lesson Try-Out Program
This fall, students who have not taken private lessons at MTMC, may take one lesson for free!
This allows students to experience a particular faculty member’s teaching style and see if private
lessons are a good fit.
Performance Experiences
Students in the private lesson program have the opportunity to perform in community recitals,
Mountain Top’s unique “Performance Potlucks”, and other performance events throughout the
year. More advanced students might even wish to schedule a solo recital, or share a recital
program with a friend.
