FAQ
"Great place and teachers that are patient and care about student's progress. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for great music education in a warm and supportive place."
"We got to know Azar Music School during COVID. Even with social distancing and masks, Ms Helia, Nila, and dear Marjan connected wonderfully with the children and quickly sparked their interest in music. Since then, we have been very satisfied with the classes and have continued with great enthusiasm.
The teachers are highly knowledgeable and experienced in teaching both children and adults.
One of the best aspects of this school is the annual concerts, where the happy and satisfied faces of parents are proof that this school is doing an excellent job."
