Long Island Studio of Music sends its teachers to your home for private music lessons, so there is no studio to drive to. Lessons cover voice and piano, strings (violin, viola, cello and bass), acoustic, electric and bass guitar, brass, woodwinds, and drums and percussion, in styles from classical and opera to musical theater and pop. The school also teaches music theory and composition, prepares students for NYSSMA, and coaches musical theater and college auditions, and students can perform in recitals held throughout the year. It was founded by two Long Island opera singers who teach voice and piano, and all of its teachers have had background checks. Lessons are for students of all ages and skill levels, adults and absolute beginners included. Teachers travel to towns across Nassau and western Suffolk, from Floral Park, Great Neck and Long Beach to Huntington, Northport, Smithtown and Commack.

Older kids, or students coming from another school, are placed by age and experience. The school also offers after-school pickup for enrolled students, birthday parties, and camps: an all-day summer camp that runs six weeks, plus camp days over the winter break (for current students) and the spring break. New students can book two free trial classes.
