A really amazing place to learn music. There is such a large staff that even if one teacher doesn't click well with a student, there are others to choose from. There is also a general friendliness in the whole building. It's a very comfortable and inclusive space and the caliber of artists teaching there is very impressive.
After a very long hiatus from playing the clarinet, I began studying with Julie Asuma Levene at NMS. What a wonderful experience. She is an excellent teacher and ensemble coach. Several years ago she had a studio recital, and I had an opportunity to meet many of her students. The ages ranged from young children to senior citizens. We all agreed that she was terrific and we were lucky to have her as a teacher.
I came back to my flute after a 40 year hiatus. No small matter, I took a free trial lesson with Elaine Thoma, just to see if I should bother to overcome all I had forgotten in that time. I haven't looked back and I continue to take lessons at NMS with Elaine. She is patient, loves teaching and playing and she is a consummate professional. I attribute much of my rediscovery of the joys of playing music to Elaine and the opportunity to study with her at NMS.
