Adult Music Lessons in Marlborough, MA

At Bach to Rock, our programs are designed for all ages — including adults! Our adult music lessons are perfect for anyone who wants to learn a new instrument as an adult — or even take music lessons for the first time! We’re also a great choice for older musicians who are feeling a little rusty and want to brush up on their skills.

Bach to Rock Music Lessons for Adults

Anyone can learn to play an instrument at Bach to Rock — no matter your skill level or experience with music!

In our adult music lessons, we offer a step-by-step curriculum that anyone can follow. If you’re a first-time musician, you can work your way up from basic skills, through intermediate lessons, to more advanced techniques. If you have prior experience, you can skip ahead to intermediate or advanced lessons.

We adjust our curriculum to each student’s abilities, and we encourage each student to follow their own musical interests! Our private lessons offer plenty of one-on-one feedback, and come with the option of learning in-person or online.

Our unique approach gives you total control over the songs, genres, and styles you want to learn in music lessons. You can choose which songs you learn from a library of 500+ tracks, featuring classical composers like Beethoven and Brahms, music legends like Nirvana and Dolly Parton, plus modern superstars like Coldplay and Rihanna!

In addition to one-on-one adult music lessons, Bach to Rock also encourages adult students to join a band in our ensemble program. Adult students are placed in bands with students of similar age, ability, and musical interests. This way, you can build your skills while playing with other musicians and hone your talents as a performer!
