St. Andrew Academy of Music opened it's doors on March 1, 1999. The goal of the music academy is to offer musical instruction to students in the Santa Maria Valley. As we celebrate our 13th year, we're still excited about making music in our community.
- Music is a universal language.
- Music engages the brain and stimulates neural pathways associated with mathematics, abstract thinking and empathy.
- Music's melodic and rhythmic patterns exercise the brain and help develop the memory. (Remember the ABC song?)
- Music trains listening skills (goes hand in hand with school achievement.)
- Music is a creative experience that helps us express feelings.
- Music is the way we pass on our beloved songs to future generations.
- Music involves family and community participation at home, school, social activities & organizations.
We believe that every person is born with musical ability. Our teachers have years of instructional and performance experience. Whether you are starting out at age four or age ninety-nine, a beginner or a seasoned musician, we are dedicated to providing competent musical instruction in music theory, sight reading, ear training, improvisation, and solo performance. All are part of a custom- tailored lesson for each and every student.
