A comprehensive place where you can get quality music education for all ages. They have multiple instructors for piano, violin, flute, clarinet, drums, cello and saxophone. This place offers mostly Western classical music teaching although they do have some Indian style as well. I go there for violin lessons and have been impressed with the quality. They also have art classes and the whole place is decorated with art works of their students.Its a fairly huge place and had about 20 plus classrooms with comfortable ambience. Its located in the same lot as Costco and trader Joes in Almaden valley on the corner of blossom Hill and Almaden expressway. This particular place is located in the same building as bed bath and beyond. You just need to get to the centre courtyard and its located in the SE corner.They do offer trial lessons and sometimes discount them. So please make sure to ask. They go by monthly billing with no commitments.

I was evaluating this school for my sons piano lessons but ended up joining myself. My son is very Young and I needed to try out some lessons before committing and the school worked with me through the process of trying out multiple teachers, who were all fantastic in their own league, but I was looking for a non traditional learning for my son. So though we decided its not the right time for my son to start here, I myself ended up joining one of the teachers who we tried out and liked. He is Mr. Matthew. As a teacher he had understood my goals and my expectations and is challenging me accordingly. I really like the class.The schools management was very involved and took lot of effort to understand my and my sons requirements and constantly followed up on the experience as a new student. This is rare to see but reflects the passion of the management towards music and towards customer service. I would recommend this highly. I also love the arts program of schools which I have walked by often and seen the amazing paintings that Young students make there.

Terrible billing and tuition policy, I would give negative score if I could. I tried to drop the class from June in May since my kid would be traveling during June and July. But they denied and said it was too late - I had to request before 15th. So I still payed for June in full. Therefore I could only to select to quit from July. And due to my kid is not able to attend, I submit the online form to cancel the classes for June(their cancel form is for temporary absent). Later I realized they also charged me for July too. So I called them and been heard I could not have the make up classes for June. Since I already chose to quit. Now I confused, previously they said I could not quit, and now tell me no class since Im already quit?

I love the teachers, especially Debora. However the new administration since mid 2018 have been disappointing. I have tried to get contact by leaving multiple messages with Front desk, Sophia, no follow up.This rating is purely for teacher.

My son attends guitar lessons at Almaden School of Music & Art. I must say I have been extremely pleased with the experiences. The teachers have been really kind, caring and seem honestly devoted to helping young students learn and progress. He is extremely shy and the staff have encouraged but never “pushed or forced” him to perform in front of others. They understand his need to play for his own satisfaction. I applaud Almaden School of Music & Art for its commitment to their students.
