Yamaha piano
As we always strive to improve our lessons, caliber of instructors and studio environment, to live up to our well-earned reputation, we recently upped our game when we received a Yamaha Baby Grand piano! While our instructors and students enjoyed and have made great music using our other pianos – the Samick, the baby Steinway or the Kawai, it is interesting how a baby grand has changed their game and enthusiasm. If you are looking for a place to tickle the ivories, check out our instructors or give us a call!

Prestige Music Academy is the only music school in the Phoenix, Arcadia, Desert Ridge or PV area that challenges their students with the opportunity to earn special color wristband bracelets (kids and teens love them!), trophies AND certificates for passing musical tests. No other schools inspire their students with smiling faces by giving them full color, really cool “Musical Ladder®” wristbands that they can show off when they are accomplishing challenging goals. The Musical Ladder® is our unique method of music education that you can only get at PMA.

More importantly, when our students have a test coming up, they practice more, teachers and parents are proud - everybody wins! You can only get the “Musical Ladder®” at PMA. We also specialize in music lessons for adults.

7. Semi-Annual music recitals in a locally renowned top notch music hall and our annual student showcases!

We are one of the only music schools in the Valley that offers recitals with a grand piano in a first class professional recital hall located at Memorial Hall, in Steele Indian School Park.

Every parent wants to know how well their child is progressing. Providing our young and not-so-young students the opportunity to showcase their musical accomplishments is a great experience for all and a confidence builder for the musician. The best way for a parent to understand if their investment in lessons is really worth it, is to have their child participate in a recital. All ages are invited to perform.

During the recovery period, PMA has hosted the recitals on site. We anticipate returning to Memorial Hall for our fall recital. At our May recital, we hosted 27 performers. Click here for pictures and videos.

In May and November, many of our students choose to perform in our biannual recitals. We have traditionally held our recitals at Memorial Hall. This venue offers a grand piano amazing acoustics resulting in a great experience for all performers. All recitals are digitally videotaped to later share with family.
