“We teach music to all ages”

Community Music Center of Boston is an accredited non-profit music school that provides excellent music education to groups and individuals of diverse backgrounds, abilities and ages. We have been teaching music for 101 years in the multicultural South End of Boston. Our roots were planted in 1910 and through decades of growth and development, our mission has remained strong, focused, and unchanging: to make music education available to all.

Music touches people profoundly, having a remarkable capability to bring out one’s highest potential. At the Music Center, we are all about personal transformation and we believe that when music education creates sparks in individuals, it can change lives.

MUSIC THERAPY

Benefits of Music Therapy- Improved interpersonal relationships- Development of communication - Enriched self-awareness and expression- Increased attention span and memory

Our autistic daughter, who had never

before communicated at any level,

literally ‘found her voice’ in a music

therapy session. This discovery has opened

up a new world of potential for her, and

she is now a musical star at her school for

students with special needs.”
