Venue and Staff
Harrogate Music School uses the excellent music facilities available at:
Harrogate Grammar School
Arthur’s Avenue
Harrogate
North Yorkshire
HG2 0DZ (Click here for further contact details plus directions for where to find us).
Presently, all of the lessons we give in Harrogate take place in the music department at Harrogate Grammar School on Arthur’s Avenue. If you require a lesson during school time (9.00am to 3.30pm) we may be able to organise tuition to take place at a different venue. Where possible we will do all we can to have your lessons take place at a suitable time for you.
The teaching rooms are heated, most have outside windows, they all have visual access to a corridor (so that no teacher or pupil is in a room which is not overlooked in some way, to help protect both the teacher and the pupil) and they are equipped with a Piano or an Electric Keyboard, a Cd/Cassette player, Music Stands and a mirror. During lessons, Percussionists usually have access to a full Drum Kit and a selection of Orchestral percussion instruments including Timpani, Vibraphone, Glockenspiel, Congas, Bongo’s and various smaller items. In the event of the usual teaching room not being available, we will make every effort to move the necessary equipment to another suitable room. There are also toilets close by too!!
New Teacher
We have just secured the services of a new extra teacher due to students demanding vocal tuition. Vacancies are now available for singing lessons as well as on Piano and Oboe. The new teacher was required to boost our resources due to the other teachers having full teaching timetables! Our teachers are graduates of various Universities and music colleges including Leeds University, Leeds College of Music and the Royal Northern College of Music. All of them are interviewed for the post and undergo an Enhanced Criminal Record Disclosure check. |
