Deck the halls with Boughs of Holly fa-la- la-la- la, la-la- la-la! Now I’m guessing you couldn’t help but sing along with that could you? Well… get ready to sing some more, because the holiday season is approaching fast! You’ll be hearing the students of Monument Square Community Music School hard at work learning their favorite holiday songs. Along with tons of music, we have a lot of new and exciting projects and events in the works, including a monthly Jazz Jam that will happen at 6:00 PM on the first Sunday of every month at Monument Square Community Music School with an entry fee of $5. We have created this event to give intermediate and advanced students a chance to meet and play with other musicians and to also create a space where students and musicians can show what they have been working on. All are welcome to come join the fun even if it is just to listen. Each Jazz Jam will feature a band made up of teachers and other performing musicians. It’s always a ball here at Monument Square and we look forward to seeing and hearing our students continue to grow everyday.

Until next post,

We hope all of our students are enjoying a relaxing summer vacation! Here at Monument Square Music, we enjoy hearing our summer session students fill the halls with bright, beautiful music all summer long and are excited to have everyone rejoin us in the fall. As we prepare for the new school year, keep an eye out for new faculty, programs, and of course, new students! Registration for fall music lessons is now open, and anyone interested can register here.

Monument Square Community Music school is happy to announce that we will be relocating our music lesson program to downtown Leominster, where we have been giving lessons since November 2017! We love having a store front and being located right in the heart of things in Leominster’s up and coming downtown. We truly hope to enhance Leominster’s art and music scene and we are excited to bring our amazing teachers to the new location. Our school has been growing steadily since we opened our doors in 2012 and it was time to get a new hip spot and take the school to the next level! As always, our music school has a rolling admission, so feel free to register at any time in the semester. It is easy to fill out the registration form here; http://monumentsquaremusic.com/register/private-lessons-registration/  We have expanded our faculty roster and are ready to take on new piano, voice, guitar, drums, bass, sax, flute, and strings students for the new year.

The move took a great of amount of construction and redesigning and we are so pleased with how everything came out. In November, we opened the new space to the public at an open house that included performances from many of the teachers and students. It was a blast! We are grateful to the many family and friends who showed up as well as the press and writers and photographers from the local newspaper; helping us spread the word about our new location! The open house gave us a taste of things to come, and showed us the possibilities of having concerts and performances from teachers, students and other musicians in our space. We think we have something special happening and we are excited to see what the future brings at 20 Main St.!

Register for fall lessons today! Give us a call at 617-823-1848 or an e-mail at monumentsquaremusic@gmail.com to register. We have amazing teachers for piano, voice, guitar, bass, drums, saxophone, violin, and cello lessons all right in downtown Leominster MA. We had a great time last year with all of the students and teachers and it has been a pleasure to watch the students grow into musicians. We are grateful to the parents and students, some of who have been with us since we opened our doors four years ago and we are really looking forward to starting off 2016! We are also blessed to have such a great roster of teachers on our faculty. You can check out our teachers’ biographies on this page; http://monumentsquaremusic.com/about/instructors/ We also added three new teachers last year in James Dower, Lizzy Marquis, and Michael Rice. They are all exceptional musicians who also happen to be great teachers! We consider our teachers to be the centerpiece of our school so we have concentrated on getting the best of the best. We feel like our high standard of teachers has definitely had an enormous impact on our music students and we can’t wait to continue serving this community with music lessons!
