Located in the heart of San Mateo at a studio formerly known as Lessons on B, Gradus Ad Parnassum Music Academy is a passionate group of teachers, fully dedicated to their profession.
Under the leadership of David Chernyavsky and Irina Behrendt, the space has undergone a renovation, which improved the efficiency of the building and is helping better serve our community of musicians.
We offer piano, violin, viola, guitar, clarinet, harp, voice, and harpsichord private lessons. Check out our Teachers page to contact individual teachers directly, or send your inquiries via our contact form. If you are a teacher and in need of a teaching space or a performance venue - look no further. Click on the rent tab and send us an email!
