What differentiates us from the hundreds of other music studios?
Our people do!
At the Pasadena Campus of Altadena Academy of Music (locations in Pasadena, CA and Altadena, CA), you will only be taught by background-checked, highly-educated, and most importantly, passionate and engaging instructors! Want more reasons why thousands of families have chosen us?
At Altadena Academy of Music, our mission is to not only teach you the voice how to sing, but make you fall in love with music. Our handpicked, highly-credentialed teachers are here not to just teach you the basics, but to really guide you along the musical journey - from A to Z.
Whether you are a first-time beginner or a student preparing for auditions or exams, our lessons are designed to help you achieve your goals.
With lessons avaialble for both adults and children, the Academy is Pasadena and Altadena's premiere destination for music and arts education.
My ten year old has been with the school for the past 4 years. She started with piano and absolutely loves her music teacher! Ms. Valerie is fostering greater appreciation and understanding of music.
We’ve had Sam as a teacher for about three (3) years and our goal was to have our son (who is high functioning autistic) to enjoy creating his own music and have fun with music!
My son has been taking violin lessons with Ms. Valerie for 7 years. He was able to join a high school orchestra as a 6th grader with her guidance. We love Altadena Music Academy!

Quick answers to your piano adventure questions!
They truly are the best you will find. We take teaching seriously. Every year, there are hundreds of studios that pop up... only to close a year or two later. We have consistently been the top destination for the musical needs of our community since 2003, and the quality of our teachers is a reflection of that committment and our reputation.
Voice lessons can be started as early as four (4) years old. There is no upper limit - the oldest student we have taught is in her eighties (80s). For students younger than four (4), we encourage enrolling in our Animal Adventures Toddler Program.
Not only do we host recitals, we actually host them four times a year - both at a school venue and an outside venue, such as the Boston Court Theatre. Unlike other studios, we have our own recital hall, which allows for much more frequent performances.
Of course - your comfort is our priority. Both the Pasadena, CA (intersection of Walnut and Michigan) location and the Altadena, CA location (intersection of Lake and Calaveras) have ample parking right in front of the school.
For a limited time, students will receive their first month of lessons for only $59.
