Five of our teachers are based in Castle Hill, Norwest, The Ponds and West Pennant Hills, with a lean towards woodwind, voice and percussion. Some help with school band music, AMEB exams and theory.
The Sydney Metro Northwest line stops at Castle Hill and Norwest, so studio lessons are easy to reach. Edward in Norwest usually travels to students’ homes across the Hills District, so there is no commute.
