Practice Music School

Find a new hobby or refresh your old musical skills at Jamk Practice Music School!

At our music school you can study playing several different instruments. Singing lessons are also available as group lessons. We accept both beginners and those who have played instrument or singed before. The student must be at least 5 years old, for singing at least 15 years old, and there is no upper age limit.

Teaching is provided by Music Pedagogue Degree Programme students. The length of a weekly lesson is 45 – 60 minutes. The right to study is generally for one year at time, but the duration of the study is affected by the length of the teaching trainee’s training period. The available instrument options also vary depending on the teaching trainees.

We aim to provide you an opportunity to advance and improve your musical skills, whether you are a beginner or more advanced in the field of music. During your studies, you can complete the level performance in accordance with the requirements of the Association of Finnish Music Schools. All lessons are held at the Finnish Music Campus, Pitkäkatu 18 - 22.
