My daughter Abby has tried different theater programs, piano lessons, acting camps and things of that nature but School of Rock has really been the place that she consistently enjoys. She never hesitates about attending weekly vocal lessons or band rehearsals. She always goes from one session to the next without question…”Of course I want you to sign me up for the next band program!” It has become a place of new and lasting friendships, new skills and newly found patience with herself as she does have days where she just can’t hit that note!
As a parent I continue to be impressed with the School of Rock’s communication, flexibility with rescheduling and desire to showcase the student’s talent. I’m always tempted to join the adult program because it just looks like fun!
Thank you!
Very patient, dedicated instructors. Personable and very knowledgable. Absolutely satisfied!
My son has participated in the SoR summer camp twice now and has loved it! He’s learned so much, and has had a great time doing it. We highly recommend SoR !
My son a year ago had never held a drumstick. This past Sunday he was on stage performing with other SoR kids in front of 150 people at a venue that reminded me of college days 😉 It was unbelievable.
His progress over the last 12 months has been obvious and demonstrated.
Brandon, Matt, The Mikes, Grace and Blake are incredible teachers and mentors.

Great experience! My kid enjoys playing music with other kids from other towns. Made great friends! So fun to see and hear them perform!! Rock On kiddos!!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place!!! My daughter always leaves with a smile on her face as they make it such a positive place to learn music. They truly exceeded my expectations and I am so happy my daughter goes here.
My kids love going to music class. They are playing the instruments they want to learn, drums, keyboard and guitar. The staff is great to work with and great to them!

We’ve had an excellent experience with this new location of the reputable School of Rock franchise. During COVID, we were very pleased with the quality of the remote instruction and the follow up from Scott and team. An added bonus is that they will be conveniently situated in Blue Back Square!
Another parent highly recommended the School of Rock for my musical 15-year-old. We have only been at the School of Rock West Hartford for 1 season, and it has been an amazing experience – we are looking forward to the concert for each band to showcase all their hard work and talent! My son is not a die-hard sports kid (although he has been on several teams at school); he really loves music, plays piano and sax.
Being in a band takes the band members to a new level in their musical development/performance…it provides experience working in a “team” environment, offers opportunities for introverted kids to step outside their comfort zone with peers who possess similar interests and form new friendships, and helps band members gain confidence and self-esteem.
The School of Rock West Hartford is conveniently located a few minutes off I-84 next to Blue Back Square and has free parking at the facility.
Upon entering School of Rock, you can hear the band practicing, the energy of the staff is very positive, and the band members sound like they are having a great time together in the student waiting room. My son loves the passion and encouragement of all his instructors, who make the private lesson as well as the band practice a fun, engaging, educational and enriching experience every time. The band members encourage each other also. Through the instructors own musical training as well as the School of Rock performance methodology, they quickly learn their band member/students’ strengths and areas for opportunity and make them feel like they are an important part of the band. I love how the instructors make each band member feel like a real rock star.
I highly recommend the School of Rock experience!
Great instructors and good program. The playing live aspect is a nice bonus.
School of rock, Rocks!!!!

Great set of instructors that keep you engaged and excited to continue learning. Learn the songs you love not the songs from some book that nobody really wants to learn. Staff is very nice too. Can’t go wrong

Not only can Billy sing the lights out, but he and his team of musical gurus can teach you how to as well. Keep up the great work!
Staff is the best they are like family
New Haven Academy of Performing Arts has been the best choice I could ever have made for my daughter. P started taking classes at NHAOPA at the age of 7, this year at age 11 she moved up to middle school with an amazing sense of self and a great amount of confidence. The amazing instructors and staff at NHAOPA create such a loving, encouraging, supportive and FUN environment it’s hard to get the kids to leave for home at the end of the class. P started piano lessons this year and came home after her first lesson eager to practice and welcoming the challenge of a new skill. This place is truly magical and I’m so glad we found them!
