Parent Recommendations
Testimonial, August 2026:
The dedicated teachers at Klassical Kidz have truly fostered our daughter’s love of music from the start, creating an intimate learning environment that is both caring and rigorous.
Since she enrolled in 1st grade, we have witnessed her grow musically in violin and piano through individual lessons, and socially through a series of wonderful mixed-age ensemble and chamber groups by which students forged friendships and learned to: deepen collaboration, build mutual trust, actively listen, and read subtle cues to perform together, and eventually lead.
She’s had so much fun, not to mention the many summers playing music and games under an outdoor tent for the annual Harry-Potter-infused Chamber Music Institute!
Entering her 12th year with the program, we are inspired by her ceaseless joy and commitment to strings, thanks to Klassical Kidz, as she continues to build artistic range and endeavors towards her culminating senior concert.
- Proud Klassical Kidz Parent Since 2015
Klassical Kidz has been a core part of my son’s experience of growing up. He started in second grade and is now in high school.
The private lessons are excellent, but the really special thing is the community that grows out of the kids playing together in ensemble and then in chamber.
I think it’s helped keep my son engaged and connected during a challenging few years.
Building a foundation of music theory in their students is important to Miss Lydia and Miss Adrienne, but so is building a foundation of friendship!

I have had two children learn to play violin with Klassical Kidz, one of which is going on her tenth year.
Klassical Kidz is unique in that it provides a whole musical community to it’s students.
From camps to performances to music history lessons, students of Ms. Lydia and Ms. Adrienne learn to be well rounded musicians.
Lessons are individualized and teaching is done through creative techniques with a focus on engaging the unique interests of each child.
I highly recommend this program to any family interested in having their child pursue an instrument.

We feel fortunate to be part of the Klassical Kidz community!
We are truly amazed to watch our child grow confident in playing a variety of pieces on the piano over the past six years. Both Lydia and Adrienne are very talented and committed teachers.
Not only do they focus on the individual performance but also on supporting and performing together as a team, thereby fostering a strong team spirit.
