The cornerstone of our school is the conviction that every child can, with careful teaching and parental support, become a successful musician able to make music a part of his or her life. We believe music study will enrich their lives through appreciation of beauty, development of disciplined work habits, and increased self-esteem.

The Pittsburgh Music Academy exists to give people of all ages the opportunity to make music a part of their lives. Music is a gift that you give yourself or your child that offers countless hours of pleasure and companionship with other musicians. Pursuing musical excellence with the Suzuki method develops self-esteem, the ability to learn complex mental and physical skills, and an appreciation of beauty.

Everything depends on the teacher you get, period. The performance and group classes seem to be more fun rather than learning, but again it depends on each kid's eagerness & attitude. For my kid, it took a very long time (years) even for the first volume! It was so hard to register initially as nobody was present whenever we visited the office & calls were neither picked up nor voicemails returned at other times. There are a few dissatisfied parents, but mostly, I've seen only happy faces, including students.

I'm sorry that there was a bad review of this place. I find it to have very dedicated teachers who truly care about their students having a quality music education but not at the expense of the rest of a students' interests. They understand children and how they learn, and their kindness results in children who have great experiences with music and want to continue.
One of the most exciting aspects of PMA is the ability to group less experienced students with those who are more experienced during some group lessons. It allows the younger ones to have something to aspire to, and it teaches the older students how to model for the younger ones.
