Music lessons for Upland

Upland families, you have two great options.

Our sister school, Upland Music Academy, is in Upland on 3rd Ave. If La Verne works better for your week, we are one straight drive west on Foothill Blvd, historic Route 66, about 15 minutes away.

Choosing between Upland and La Verne

Upland Music Academy is our sister school at 110 N 3rd Ave #175, Upland, CA 91786, and you can reach it at (909) 552-8889. It is the closest choice for most families in downtown Upland.

La Verne Music School is at 1502 Foothill Blvd #104, La Verne. It’s a good fit if your family lives in west Upland, if you work or commute toward La Verne, Claremont or the 210, or if our lesson times suit your family better.

Not sure which is the better fit? Call us and we will help you choose.

A band town

Home of the Highland Regiment

Upland has one of the best-known high school band programs in California. The Upland High Highland Regiment has more than 220 students and has marched in the Rose Parade and won a Western Band Association championship. The school even has a bagpipe band that has competed at the world championships in Scotland.

Upland’s junior high music starts early. Pioneer has concert, symphonic and jazz bands and two choirs, Upland Academy of the Arts has bands and choirs for grades 4–8, and Foothill Knolls runs after-school band and choir.

Students on that path benefit from one-on-one time with a teacher who can work on their specific part, their tone and their audition music. That’s exactly what private lessons are for.
