An ABRSM exam centre in Ardross

Piano lessons, taught the way a lifetime at the keyboard teaches you to teach.

About the school

A school built around the piano, and around your child.

We do one thing, and we have done it for a long time: teach the piano well. Our students cover classical and jazz and all the styles in between, working from foundation through to advanced and diploma level across practical, theory and musicianship.

Our concept is simple. We keep expanding what a student is capable of, with teaching shaped to each individual learner. Our mission is to give every student a genuine, lasting experience of music by teaching to the highest standard we can, lesson after lesson.

Eastern Music School is an exam centre for the ABRSM (the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music), and we teach to the ABRSM examination syllabus across practical, theory and musicianship. Our teachers are personally trained and kept current through ongoing seminars and professional development.
