About Us

Our Mission
The Elmhurst Music Academy’s mission is to foster each student’s interest and curiosity in music while providing a solid music education rooted in traditional musical principles. We choose our teachers based on both their professional qualifications and their ability to motivate and inspire students to cultivate a life-long love and appreciation of music.

We believe that the best way to inspire students is to create a personalized curriculum based on their interests, goals, and ability level. For this reason, we specialize in private music lessons and our teachers cover a wide range of musical styles from popular to traditional. Our offerings include guitar lessons, piano lessons, voice lessons, violin lessons, bass lessons, drum lessons, beginning flute lessons, and early childhood classes.

About Us
The Chicago School of Music, founded in 1998, opened its second location the Elmhurst Music Academy in 2008 to serve the Elmhurst, Addison, Oak Brook, Bensenville and Melrose Park area. We are located in northern Elmhurst just south of Mariano’s and are easy to get to from the adjacent suburbs.
