Music Lessons

If you have questions or are ready to schedule lessons, please call Janet Hubbard at 509-230-8742 (preferred), reach out to jhubbard@westplainsmusicaldiscovery.com, or use our contact form.

Lessons are for students with their own instrument (owned or rented) who will be expected to practice regularly on their own. Younger string & guitar players may require smaller instruments.

We offer individual lessons for the following instruments:

  • Piano, ukulele – minimum age 5 years
  • Viola, violin, cello, double bass, bass guitar- minimum age 6 years
  • Guitar – minimum age 7 years
  • Trumpet, trombone, euphonium, tuba – minimum age 9 years
  • Beginner Voice – 8-9 years old*
  • Voice – minimum age 10 years

*Beginner voice involves less singing during lessons as the voice typically isn’t physically ready for extended singing yet. More work on music concepts at these ages.
