Bass Lessons in NYC, NY
(212) 537-6746
We all know the stereo-type: a stuck up instructor who's more interested in doling out monotonous exercises than helping you learn to play the bass. The bass teachers we work with are not only knowledgeable, they're also fun!
Perform For an Audience!
On June 13th, we held our annual spring recital, where students got to play the bass in front of a crowd.

We assist in pairing students with great teachers. If you'd like to add your own input, you can go to our comprehensive Teacher Directory and find the instructor that's right for you.
