I have had a few piano lessons with Jeremiah. What fun! I have five years of cello playing under my belt and he was really able to meet me and leverage my current musical skills and adapt to my learning style. Our lessons have been fun, engaging, and inspiring. I am looking forward to learning the piano!

We cant recommend our teacher, Krescent, from Mountainside Music enough. There just arent words! Our son was brand new to signing and pretty nervous - but he wanted to try it so we took a chance. Krescent is such a high level instructor and could teach a pro! But, she treated our newbie with respect and care and made him feel so comfortable. He has come so far over the summer! Its just priceless to hear him singing not only around the house now but ON STAGE! Thank you Krescent and thank you Mountainside Music!

Upon my retirement, having time on my hands, I decided to return to playing the piano after an absence from the instrument of almost 25 years. I had previously taken lessons as an adult learner and gained some limited proficiency, but had to quit as the demands of work and life took over. Now having spent the past couple of years coming back up to speed on the instrument, I felt that I could use some help to advance further than I had previously and contacted Mountainside Music Academy. Mountainside connected me to Paul Zeller, who now comes to my house weekly.
The experience has been fantastic. I love playing on my own piano and in surroundings in which I am comfortable. Paul is an excellent teacher: friendly, knowledgable, patient, and able to approach problems from a variety of different perspectives. As an adult learner, it's clear I will never be making waves as a musician - but, that's not really the point.
Some instructors, however, could see this and quickly lose interest in guiding my efforts. Not Paul, he approaches each lesson with passion and a sincere interest in helping me achieve as much as I can. I am really fortunately to have found him through Mountainside Music Academy.

My son has been working with Evi on Trumpet for the last few months and has made amazing progress. We love that he comes to our house in Longmont and he has made starting a new instrument an easy process. My son has gone from not being able to play a note to reading simple songs with a clear tone in just a few weeks.

My daughters have been with Mountainside for violin lessons for years and it has been nothing short of amazing. The convenience of having the instructors come to the house is great. Our current teacher, Theresa, is amazing with the girls. She helps to encourage excitement about playing and the kids practice willingly!

Mountainside Music Academy is an amazing resource for quality music lessons of all types of instruments, voice, and theory. Both of my kids have taken lessons in voice, piano, and music theory for years with MMA and have gained skill, technique, and confidence while really enjoying their lessons. The teachers are very talented musicians and know how to tailor lessons to what each student needs.
A great bonus, when in person classes resume, is that the music teachers will come to you, which makes it one less driving trip for parents! I highly recommend it for beginner through advanced learners.

My daughters voice and piano teacher was outstanding. I love that she came to the house. So convenient! I dont think we could ever go back to going out for lessons. I especially loved that the approach to vocal training honored and preserved the uniqueness of my daughters voice, while expanding her range and control. She got kind and constructive feedback on her songwriting that always made her songs stronger.
What I loved best was the joyful laughter and positive emotions that were generated during lessons! Mountainside Music Academy was the foundation of a love for music making in my daughter. I am so grateful we stumbled upon them.

My son Luke has been with Mountainside taking piano lessons since this incredible academy opened! Originally Danit, who is the founder of this wonderful program was his instructor and for 4 years now he has had a few piano instructors all whom have been just perfect for my son. The love, professionalism, patience, instruction, and knowledge has helped my son really grow and develop a love for music that will honestly stay with him forever.
Currently his piano instructor, Andi, has so much passion and love for music and it reflects in how she teaches. He loves every week when she shows up for lessons! My husband for a short while also took violin lessons from an instructor and had such a great experience as well. The concerts that Danit has offered make my son feel like a professional and Give him a great opportunity performing in front of a crowd. Thank you Mountainside Music Academy for giving us a beautiful music experience! What a beautiful group of professionals!
