Saxophone Lessons in Morningside Heights, NY

(212) 537-6746

Taking private saxophone lessons with a teacher one on one has advantages over taking them in a class setting. It's easy to get left behind in a class with other students. When you take private saxophone lessons your teacher knows you better and can assist you directly with learning things like 9, 11, and 13 chords, how to play minor and major diatonic seventh chord patterns and how to play major scales in basic keys.

Perform at our Annual Recital!

Every year in June Encore Music Lessons holds a recital where students get a chance to play the saxophone in front of their friends and family.

We've got some videos from the NY Spring Recital. If you'd like to watch, just click here.

We'll use your preferred availability to match you with the kind of saxophone teacher that will be best.

Give us a call today if you're ready to get started with saxophone lessons.

Ziv Is a Great Tutor

I have been taking guitar lessons with Ziv for a few months now and I am very glad I chose him as a tutor.I had never taken lessons before and I am very happy with how things are progressing.Ziv is a very patient and friendly guy which is what you need as a beginner.I am always asking questions and Ziv always has answers for me,sometimes they might be silly questions but for a beginner they still need to be answered,if only to discount some idea I may have been holding or starting to develop.If you want to learn guitar I would highly recommend you choose Ziv as your tutor.
