Why Polaris Music Studio’s pre-college Program?

artistic & technical foundation

At Polaris Music Studio, our Pre-College Program is designed to ignite our students’ passions for music while providing a solid foundation in both artistic and technical skills. We focus on essential music fundamentals, such as music theory and ear training, refining technique, fostering creative exploration through improvisation, and preparing students for auditions, performances, and recordings. 

performance & recording opportunities

Preparing for performances and auditions is a transformative process for our students. The process of preparing for performances and recordings propels them to the next level of their artistic and technical development, helping them to build the crucial skills they need as professional musicians. 

music industry & career guidance

We encourage our students’ curiosity about the music industry and careers in music. Our program brings real-world expertise from our experience as artist managers and producers. We educate about the music industry and provide honest guidance to our students for their auditions, recordings, and pursuits of higher education. We nurture our students’ musical passion by providing them with knowledge that they, and their families, need to make informed decisions about their future.

personal development

Polaris Music Studio's Pre-College Program is more than music education—it's an investment in our students’ personal development. Our program equips them with a robust learning process that extends beyond music, inspiring them to reach their full potential in all areas of life. We are committed to our students’ holistic growth.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Lessons are a minimum of 1 hour. Occasionally, we may ask if a lesson can go for an additional 15-30 minutes, depending upon what we are working on.

  • We only share our pricing with seriously interested prospective parents. If you are interested in your teen taking lessons with us, please fill out our contact form (above) and we will schedule a time to meet with you.

  • We primarily offer Pre-College Program spots to students who are age 14 and above. However, we decide whether or not to take on a student based upon many criteria, including that prospective student’s, and their parents’, level of commitment. If a prospective student under the age of 14, and their parents, have a high level of commitment to the study of piano, voice, or composition, then we would absolutely consider giving that student an opportunity to study with us.

We send a Zoom link for the scheduled lesson time and the student can log in from their laptop, tablet, or mobile device. You do not need any special equipment or software.

  • This depends on the student’s goals and your schedules. We offer three basic options: weekly lessons, bi-weekly lessons, and schedule-as-you-go lessons. When we meet with you, we will help you to determine which frequency is best for you.
