Why Is Music Notes Academy A Great Choice For Music Lessons...?
Annual Winter Concerts - New!
Starting in December of 2009, we are now offering annual Winter Concerts for our students. Our Winter Concerts will take place in Madison, New
Jersey. Students can perform Holiday music and their favorite classical, jazz or rock music!
Annual Student Recitals
Our student recitals take place in an auditorium, on stage with a grand piano, stage lighting and PA system! Students receive performance awards
and trophies for their hard work and talents and have a chance to see our bands and ensembles perform as well. Some schools have recitals in
small stuffy rooms with florescent lighting or church basements, we like to have ours on a big stage.
Piano students are eligible for New Jersey Music Educators Association Piano Evaluations
MEA offers piano students a great opportunity to receive performance opportunities as well as critique from highly regarded adjudicators. We
always encourage our piano students to participate in this unique opportunity.
MNA is a member of Music Educators Association (MEA), The National Association For Music Education (MENC), The
Percussive Arts Society (PAS) and The College Music Society (CMS)
These organizations offer music educators professional development in music education, instruction and pedagogy, all of which we take very
seriously at Music Notes Academy.
MNA sells instructional method books, sheet music and instruments
Students and parents do not have to travel to music stores to purchase instructor requested materials, everything comes to you - the teacher and
your instructional materials! We also sell select musical instruments and accessories too.
We offer piano tuning and servicing and guitar repairs and servicing
We have certified technicians on staff that repair pianos and guitars. For our guitar students, we offer our students a loaner guitar while the
student's guitar is being serviced. It's a free loaner instrument too.
Rock Bands, Jazz Bands & Percussion Ensembles are offered in Madison, NJ at The Madison Community House
In addition to in-home music lessons, we also offer group classes, ensembles and bands currently on Saturdays throughout the school year. A
great opportunity, we strongly believe that students should also perform with other students under the guidance of a music teacher in addition to
private instruction.
MNA Instructors work with student's school band music and prepare students for auditions, performances, evaluations and
school performance tests.
Our students have successfully auditioned for jazz bands, school musicals, college auditions, music competitions, marching bands and some
students have started their own bands!

Music Notes Academy was established in 2000
Brandon Kurzawa began teaching drum lessons in the student's homes in
Bridgewater, Branchburg and Hillsborough, New Jersey. Then we were called
Kurzawa School of Music, not as catchy as Music Notes Academy. Brandon
changed the name in 2005.
Trial lessons and interviews are available with the Academy Director
Not sure about music lessons with MNA? You can have a trial lesson, meet with
Brandon Kurzawa (the director) or speak with him over the phone for more
information. Trial lessons/interviews are $45, the phone call is free.

Student - Teacher matching
You can choose your teacher from our teachers page or we will match you with a qualified
teacher. Some of our teachers have a waiting list for new students though.
Qualified and dedicated music instructors
All our instructors studied music and have, at minimum, an undergraduate degree in unique
areas of study. Some of us have master's degrees as well and we all work professionally in
music, whether it's performing, teaching, recording, producing or writing. We actually all enjoy
teaching music and consider teaching music a priority within our music careers.
Comprehensive music lessons in the student's home
The instructor travels to you!
Students and parents avoid driving to locations for music lessons, and students receive all
the benefits of having quality music instruction. Why travel to a community music school or
music store with small stuffy rooms and poor sound isolation? You can study at home, in
your comfortable environment, with your own instrument and still perform on stage in an
auditorium for student recitals! Not to mention you can also perform with one of our bands,
such as rock band, jazz band or percussion ensemble. These group classes meet in
Madison, NJ weekly.
No contracts, only monthly commitments
Certain community schools and music instruction providers require a semester or 26 lesson
commitment. We require that you give us a monthly commitment. In order to maintain
quality instructors, we need to have a small commitment from the students and parents.
Make-up lessons available For student absences and instructor absences
Certain community schools and music instruction providers do not offer make-up lessons
anymore. We do! Students receive 3 make-up lessons per academic school year.
The instructors teach through a structured approach yet offer balance and flexibility within such approaches. In addition to quality music instruction, we also offer student recitals, ensembles and bands at adjunct locations, student-level quality instruments, sheet music and instructional materials at great discounted prices for currently enrolled students and parents. You will not find a program like ours anywhere else (if you do, please let us know!).

The most important reason we are a great choice for quality music instruction is because we offer and teach music via a well rounded and comprehensive music curriculum. Our students not only learn how to play an instrument, they study music theory, musicianship skills, classical and jazz performance techniques and repertoire and receive an enjoyable and educational music experience.
