Angeles Academy of Music
Angeles Academy of Music is a long-running Los Angeles music school with three locations across Brentwood, Westwood, and Tarzana, offering private voice, piano, violin, guitar, and other instrument lessons since 2013. The school employs dozens of university-trained instructors and serves a mix of children, teens, and adults, from complete beginners to advanced students.
What people praise
- Reviewers with children in lessons describe patient, encouraging teachers who keep kids motivated week over week
- A reward system for regular practice is specifically praised by several parents as an effective motivator
- Flexible scheduling, including both in-person and Zoom options for recitals, comes up repeatedly
- Long-term students describe steady, visible progress over months and years, not just a single course
Worth knowing
- One reviewer described feeling less supported than other students at one location, worth asking about instructor fit before committing to a long-term plan
Our take: The scale and structure here, three locations, dozens of instructors, and a genuine track record with both kids and returning adults, make it the safest first call for most students.
