The student confirms their place in the Music Center by paying the first part of the semester fee by the day previously stated.

If a student cancels an instrument lesson one (1) month before, the lessons will be rearranged for another time or taken in account when calculating the next fee. Lessons cancelled in short notice cannot be refunded. If a teacher cannot make it to a lesson, a substitute will be provided if possible. If not, the lesson will be rearranged for another time or the student will be refunded.

The Sound of Music Center – since 1994

It has been stated that music, as a hobby for children, has a positive impact on both the development of the hearing and motoristic skills emphasises the founder and executive manager Risto Kultala. Playing an instrument exercises our brains and also improves our ability to focus. Everyone knows that music also has to be pleasant, and mastering different instruments can prove to be an endless adventure for both the young and the old.

The Musiikkikoulu Music Center was founded November 1994. Since 2003 Musiikkikoulu Music Center’s kannatusyhdistys ry has been in charge of the activities of Music Center.

The lessons are taught with a par or alone or in the group. The student progresses based on their skills and abilities. After the student has learned the basics of the instrument, the student can direct their learning to either classical or pop/rock music.

To progress in your studies requires diligent home practise. Regular attendance to the lessons is important for improvement. Owning an instrument is necessary.

The student has a possibility of doing soloistic subjects and music theory course examinations in accordance with the Finnish music-learning institution union’s requirements.
