Harborfields Music Center is a music school on Pulaski Road in Greenlawn offering private and semi-private lessons for kids ages 3 and up, teens and adults. Instruments include piano, voice, guitar, drums, violin, viola, flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, French horn and baritone. Lessons follow the school's GrowthTrack curriculum, an eight-month cycle in which band comes back every other month between months of songwriting, music technology, ear training, and composition and publishing. Families can choose one lesson a week; the recommended track of one private lesson plus one semi-private session a week, with semi-private groups capped at 5 students; or two private lessons a week for students preparing for an audition or performance. For the youngest, PreNotes (ages 3 to 4) introduces music through movement, singing, rhythm games and sensory exploration, with parent-child participation, and Little KeyNotes (ages 4 to 5) introduces piano and keyboard through songs, stories and guided play, in 30-minute sessions for small groups of up to 6 children. The school also offers NYSSMA preparation for all instruments and levels 1 to 6, ending with a mock assessment; a twice-weekly program designed for homeschool families, ages 5 and up; and adult lessons for beginners and returning musicians, with evening and weekend times. Students can perform in two recitals a year.

Heart & Soul Music Academy is a music studio on High Street in Huntington that teaches piano and voice to kids, teens and adults. The youngest students start in Music Explorers, a small-group class for ages 3 to 5 who aren't quite ready for private lessons, with four to six children per class learning through singing, movement, rhythm games and interactive activities. From age 5, students take private piano and voice lessons, and piano for younger kids takes a play-based approach. Teen lessons for ages 13 to 18 run 30 or 60 minutes and can include audition and self-tape prep, musical theater training, and NYSSMA coaching. Adults 18 and up take lessons too, and no musical experience is needed to start. Performing is encouraged but not required: students can take part in a virtual Holiday Playlist showcase in December and an in-person Showcase in June. Families choose a membership with a weekly lesson or flexible lesson packages, with no semester-long commitment, and lessons are offered in person or virtually. A missed lesson that can't be rescheduled is replaced with a personalized video lesson.
