We are an educational centre devoted to teaching music in an inspirational way. Our fantastic teaching staff and friendly environment mean we're the perfect place to learn an instrument. There are lots of performance opportunities throughout the year, as well as Music Place bands, instrumental groups and choirs to get involved with.
The Music Place was set up by Lucy in 1997. She wanted to get away from the stuffy, old fashioned idea of music education. To do this, she created an environment which merged the positive elements of traditional music teaching with a more contemporary, exciting and inspirational approach. Our mission is to offer the best tuition for all instruments, styles, ages and abilities under one roof.

Singing every week with a large group of other people out to enjoy themselves - who wouldn't want to do that? No pre-recorded karaoke backing tracks either - we sing with great musicians and are guided by the inimitable energy and talent that is Clare. In a life full of deadlines and checking if my energy supplier is ripping me off - singing at the fabulous Cinnamon Club with The Music Place, keeps me connected to what life is really about.

I've been learning jazz piano at The Music Place for just over a year now. It's conveniently located in the centre of Altrincham and open late in the evenings which is great for lessons outside of work hours. All of the staff are really helpful and the teaching quality is excellent. Highly recommended.
