UPPER WEST SIDE, NEW YORK, NY

HOLISTIC GROWTH FROM YOUR LIVING ROOM:

Invite a transformative experience through music into your home

right here in the Upper West Side of New York City.

Background

Hi, I’m Andrew! A NYC Dad who’s thought a lot about helping children find their unique gift, or what I like to call, “their thing.”

I discovered music can be a great path for personal development and discovery, even if they never become a professional musician. And there’s now tons of studies proving the brain development benefits of learning an instrument.

We started in Brooklyn 17 years ago, and are now thrilled to be offering in-home lessons for students on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.

Why Our In-Home Holistic Approach Is Perfect for the Upper West Side

Started in a living room in 2007 by Andrew Ingkavet, the school has experienced significant growth over the past 17+ years. With a team of over 29 teachers, thousands of students have been inspired, empowered, and filled with the joy of music.

We believe music is more than entertainment. It's life skills through music.

Parents Share Their Stories

"My daughter has been a student at Park Slope Music Lessons for years and it's been a fabulous experience. Piano has helped provide her with a different approach to thinking and learning and she truly enjoys it. The instructors are fantastic and do an amazing job connecting with each student and tailoring their approach to their individual needs. Thank you so much!"

- Kevin DeNoia

"My daughter has never sought to play music professionally, so her continued commitment to her weekly lessons for 12+ years (even with her busy high school schedule), is a testament to how much she truly enjoys being part of the Park Slope Music Lessons family!"
