Music Lessons Directory

Submissions for this site have now been closed and will remain so as far as we can see. All submissions should be directed to a new site that we are in partnership with, Services Local, that should better be able to serve as a directory for private music lessons teachers, among other things.

In effect, this site has been engulfed by our new one so please consider submitting your information there to get the same result as you would here. People who have had their information posted here will have to write new submissions, not just resubmit the ones from here. Sorry about that!

An interesting debate is whether teachers of music and art in general should focus on just the technical aspects of whatever medium they are teaching, or give their students lessons on the larger philosophy that should be behind art. In other words, whether the teachers should try to influence the subjects that their students take up, rather than just their craft in addressing those subjects.

People who support the hands off and objective method of focusing on technique have their allies and adversaries, including the people from this site on modern art critique. The benefit of their method is that the student gets to develop their own thoughts on what to portray in their art.

Just an update to let everyone know that there is a site out there like this one but for music composers, and we know that a lot of music teachers on this site may also be composers.

The site features a list of composers as well as some job openings from people looking for them. If you are a teacher on this site who also may be in the business of producing music for film, tv, or video games, think about submitting your information to that site as well.
