PHILOSOPHY

Founded in 1987, the Crestwood Music Education Center has established itself as one of the most reputable and premier Music Schools in Westchester County with well over seven hundred private students of all ages and levels, beginner through professional.  Our philosophy is to create a very positive, stimulating environment which will give each student the chance for creative self-expression. We are committed to providing the highest quality and most meaningful musical education and are invested in developing each student’s imagination, creativity, intellect, and humanity through this most wonderful art, music.

At the Crestwood Music Education Center, we believe in the importance of having a world class faculty with extensive education as well as teaching and performing experiences that are only found in America’s finest music schools.  More important though, is the commitment our teachers make to share their love of music in the lesson studio, inspiring and guiding each student every step along the way. In assisting prospective students in making an educated decision on starting private lessons, we offer a complementary introductory meeting with the teacher to help answer any questions and to direct students to the most fitting program.         

Since its beginning, the Crestwood Music Education Center has offered special courses such as the Suzuki program for piano and string, the jazz program, the Musikgarten/Kindermusik program for the young, adult program and many others (see Course Offerings page), which provide our students with the most progressive exposure to musical education.

We at the Crestwood Music Education Center look forward in working with you and your family and wish to make your world a more musically creative one.

Sincerely,
Dr. Ginès-Didier Cano
