Established in 1958, our mission at the New Jersey School of Music is to provide a comprehensive avenue for creative self-expression and personal enrichment through music education to our local communities. Our educational staff is committed to developing the physical, mental and problem solving skills that not only lead to better musicians, but well rounded individuals. Dynamic and creative performance, effective practice regimes and patience are encouraged and nurtured during an individual’s study of music, with the goals of musical growth and personal fulfillment firmly in mind. Our governing philosophy is that the study of music is a life long rewarding endeavor, appropriate for anyone who has ever yearned to play an instrument, and to that end, we are dedicated to presenting a wide range of students an array of creative opportunities.
