In the Studio Membership, students pay a monthly flat rate for one lesson per week. Pricing differs depending on the student’s payment method. Students are guaranteed 40 lessons for the studio year, which spans September through August. There are more than 40 weeks between those months, which allows for the studio to be closed for holidays. In addition, this schedule allows teachers to cancel up to three lessons (without makeups) throughout the year.

Membership students enjoy special perks such as discounted classes, workshops, access to our digital library, and members-only events. They are invited to participate in festivals, competitions, auditions, master classes, and multiple performance opportunities throughout the year. 

Our Drop-In Lessons option allows students to schedule lessons with their preferred teacher on an as-needed basis. Teacher availability is not guaranteed, and there is no set lesson frequency or number to commit to. Prices vary per teacher. Drop-In Lessons are not recommended for beginners.

As a member, students are given a consistent, weekly opportunity to work on their craft and continue their growth. Muscle memory is a huge part of learning, and for students—especially young learners—regular lessons contribute to seeing (and celebrating!) their practicing habits and muscle memory at work. 

The Musik Makers membership also includes discounts on studio trips, workshops, camps, masterclasses, group classes and additional lessons. Membership perks extend to family discounts, alternative assignments, and zoom alternatives for dedicated members who can’t make their lessons.

For our Studio Membership: Teachers may cancel five lessons during the studio year without having to make those up.  A teacher may also offer a virtual lesson in place of an in person lesson on occasion if necessary. Teachers may also call upon a substitute teacher, in which case your lesson will continue as planned. If your teacher cancels more than their five allowed flex lessons, they will provide either a substitute or a make up lesson within 30 days.

For our Drop-in Students: If a drop-in lesson is canceled by a teacher, the student’s account will be credited, and that credit can be used for their next scheduled lesson.

If you must cancel a lesson, please do so on by emailing us at themusikmakers@themusikmakers.org and send a text to our studio phone at 610-217-5293.

The Musik Makers studio holds two studio-wide recitals each year in the Winter and Spring, with many other opportunities available throughout the year. We are often asked to perform in community events, and our staff is always looking for or even creating performance opportunities for our students.

While there are no required events for being a Musik Maker, we do offer a wide variety of competition and public performance opportunities that students are always encouraged to participate in.

The studio is located at 165 S. Liberty Street in Nazareth, PA.

Parents of students in 7th grade and older can park in the front of the studio, and students may go around the back along the path behind the garage. Their teacher will meet them on the patio. Please only use the path along the garage and not the other side of the property. 

For parents of students in 6th grade and younger, we ask that you pick up and drop off your child on the patio.

Occasionally classes/lessons will be held at the Nazareth Center for the Arts at 30 E Belvidere Street just a half mile from the studio. Families/Students will be notified of all locations via the Location Feature in the Student Portal

While this may vary by teacher, you can expect to need, at the very least, a folder or three-ring binder for music. If a student is not able to obtain one, we can provide one from the studio.  Each student should bring a device to record their lesson with as well as a bottle of water.  Students will have to purchase assigned books and repertoire when necessary, but can also utilize our library as needed.

No! We are proud to teach a wide variety of musical styles, and we encourage our students to explore any and all styles that interest them. Our vocal teachers are trained in multiple specialities of the voice. Musical theatre, pop, classical, folk, country, r&b, rock and more are all welcome. We don’t rely on just one method of teaching; our teachers use various methodologies and pedagogies so we can to meet the learning needs of each individual student.

Teacher contact information can be found on the student and parent portal. We highly recommend using the portal or the email address the teacher has provided.
