About Harmony Music Studio - Thursday, January 1, 2009
Our teachers are as varied in personality, age, and experience as musical styles are diverse and creative. We each have our own style, and will work with each individual student to create a lesson plan that will best benefit that student. We offer private instruction in a variety of instruments for students from 5 and up, depending on the instrument. The more complex the instrument, the older the student will have to be to begin studying. For younger students, we offer Kindermusik, a wonderful music and movement program that introduces children to music in a positive and fun way, as well as providing a foundation for all other areas of child development.Harmony Music Studio was founded in 1986 by Ms. Margaret Sparks. She began teaching piano lessons to students in the community when she was attending college majoring in music. Back then, she simply called it "Margo's Piano Studio" and taught from within her Dickinson home. As the studio grew, Margo realized that she would need help in order to keep taking on new students, so in 1998, she invited one of her graduating senior students to take over her beginner piano lessons, and so Ms. Lydia Rodriguez joined the studio.
Over the years, the studio has moved several times, and in 2001 it was in Webster. At that time, Ms. Tabby Worthington was looking for an accompanist to rehearse for an upcoming audition with, and Ms. Margo agreed to do it. As they rehearsed, Ms. Margo realized that having a voice specialist would further broaden the opportunity for growth within the studio, and she asked Ms. Tabby to join the faculty. There were already a few students within the studio who asked to sing during their piano lessons, so they began to study voice in earnest with Ms. Tabby.
As we continued to grow, we realized that we needed more space, so Ms. Margo remodeled part of her home for us to use as a studio, and we changed the name to Harmony Music Studio to reflect the changes we'd made by offering multiple instruments. At that time, Ms. Margo offered Flute lessons, and Ms. Lydia offered Clarinet lessons and music theory classes, so between the 3 teachers we were offering 5 subjects. When we moved into Ms. Margo's home, our business really took off, and we added guitar and drums to the studio's repertoire with several guitar teachers, a drum teacher, and other instrumentalists.
We offer Kindermusik classes, as well, to provide something for the very young in addition to our traditional private lessons. As we continue to grow, we are found we had just outgrown the space at Ms. Margo's house, so we have moved into a brand-new facility, at FM 528 and Townes Road, in the Towne Square shopping center.
