Charlotte Area Welcomes First Bach to Rock Music School

Bach to Rock Huntersville Grand Opening

Community Invited to Grand Opening Party on January 13, 2018

Bach to Rock (B2R), America’s music school for students of all ages, proudly announces it is opening a new school in Huntersville, North Carolina. The community is invited to the free grand opening festivities on Saturday, January 13, 2018 from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. at 16610 W. Catawba Avenue, Suite A,  Huntersville, N.C., 28078. Attendees are welcome to tour the school, enjoy a free music lesson, learn about individual lessons and group classes, try out free toddler “Mommy and Me” classes, enter prize drawings and giveaways, check out the recording studio, and meet the teachers.  This location marks Bach to Rock’s first school in the Charlotte area, and its 26th in the country.

“Families in the Charlotte area have much to look forward to with our new Huntersville school.  We offer an innovative and progressive approach to music education,” said President of Bach to Rock, Brian Gross.  “Gone are the days of boring and solitary lessons.  At Bach to Rock, students launch into learning today’s favorites while our teachers expertly nurture their potential and share the fundamentals of music as they progress,” said Gross.   Families in Huntersville, Cornelius, Davidson, Denver, Mooresville and Mountain Island will truly benefit from the Bach to Rock method.

New Bach to Rock franchisee Polly Stephenson is the proud owner of the school.  “Opening a Bach to Rock school is a thrilling entrepreneurial venture for me.  I’m harnessing all the skills I’ve developed in management, strategic planning and leadership while working for The Coca-Cola Company for two decades.  I’m excited to bring the Bach to Rock concept to life as I embark on my second career as a business owner,” said Stephenson. “Bach to Rock was founded on the premise that learning how to play music should be fun. And it’s proven that students learn best when they play music they love.”  Stephenson continued, “My goals as a business owner and the Bach to Rock vision for the future of music education perfectly align.”

Bach to Rock Huntersville will offer a variety of programs for students of all ages including: individual lessons; group classes such as Rock Band and Glee Club; the Rock City program for preschoolers and toddlers; Kids-n-Keys for children in grades K-2 interested in piano; along with seasonal camps and birthday parties. Studies have shown that learning to play music in a group helps students learn teamwork, develop social skills and build self-esteem, among other benefits.  Recently, Bach to Rock introduced MyB2R, an online dashboard offering customers real-time access to student progress and more. MyB2R is the only digital service of its kind in the music school industry, and provides the ability to track student advancement, schedule lessons, obtain homework and stream over 400 pre-recorded songs to practice at home.

Changing the Way Students Learn Music 

Bach to Rock is reshaping music education on a national scale by turning solitary, boring music lessons into a group activity that is more like a team sport.  B2R focuses on providing a well-balanced music education because, ultimately, that is what parents are looking for. Unlike other music school franchises, Bach to Rock has an extensive curriculum. Students learn the intricacies of music — from theory to how to read music. Bach to Rock is the music school kids would have designed for themselves.  They get to jam with other kids right away and play current hits. The learning is the same, but the enjoyment factor is much higher.
