WELCOME TO LOWE’S SCHOOL OF MUSIC!

Providing West Toronto with quality music lessons for all ages since 1970

Types and Styles of Music lessons:

We provide lessons in:
Piano, Guitar, Voice, Violin, Drums, Saxophone, Clarinet, Bass, Trumpet, Ukulele, Banjo, and Music Theory.

We teach all styles from rock, pop, classical, blues, jazz, R&B, and folk.

Our Philosophy

Our teachers make it a priority to get to know you on a personal level and to become familiar with your musical needs and goals.

We are sensitive to respecting each student as an individual. A seven year old having their first guitar lesson will have very different needs than a fifty-seven year old taking up piano for the 2nd time after having had lessons as a child.

We work with you to make a plan that will fit your needs and musical preferences. At the first lesson your teacher will ask you about your favorite type of music, and set goals to help accomplish whatever musical aspirations you have for yourself or your child.

Whether your starting traditional lessons or attending the 8-week Learn to Play Two-Songs Program, these are the fundamental goals.

“Music can change the world because it can change people.”
— Bono

TYPES OF LESSONS:

PIANO LESSONS
(for ages five and up)

Our piano teachers teach a variety of styles from classical to popular music. Whether you want to learn Bach or The Weeknd, our teachers are happy to help you become the pianist you want to be. Our piano faculty will show you the fundamentals of sight reading, technique and theory, but they will also incorporate your favorite songs into your lessons. You do not have to have a piano at home to take lessons. A simple full size electronic keyboard will suffice. Our piano teachers have warm personalities and enjoy sharing their love for the piano with you.

GUITAR, BASS, BANJO AND UKULELE LESSONS
(for ages seven and up)

Our guitar teachers teach rock, blues, metal, country and jazz guitar lessons on electric and acoustic guitars. Beginner students can expect to work on chords, simple songs and melodies, sight reading and theory. We balance musicianship and fun by making sure that each lesson you are challenged with a new technical or theory concept, but always end with something fun such as your favorite riff or song. We use a variety of guitar method books to accomplish this and encourage students to bring CDs or their iPod/smart phone to their lesson to learn their favourite tunes.

VOICE LESSONS
(for ages six and up)

Our voice teachers primarily focus on popular music. If you have always wanted to be a better rock, pop, country, jazz, gospel or R&B singer, then we have the right voice teachers for you. Voice students spend time each week doing physical exercises to improve their vocal range, ear training, breath control, vibrato, tone production, enunciation and more. All voice students set goals with their teacher to work on sounding like their favorite recording artists, or if they prefer, to develop their own unique voice.

VIOLIN LESSONS
(for ages six and up)

Lessons are designed to teach students the fundamentals of technique, ear training and more, using a variety of musical styles to enhance the learning experience. Whether you are looking for a traditional classical musical experience, or more rock influenced lessons, our instructors are ready to provide the best instruction there is.

DRUM LESSONS
(for ages six and up)

Our drum instructors will teach rock, metal, jazz, funk, blues and many other styles. Drum language can be complex and our instructors will challenge any drummer with a wide variety of technical exercises designed to improve your speed and comfort. All drummers may bring in their favorite drum parts to learn in their lessons and theory is encouraged.
