"Our two kids started playing their instrument at Opus 1 several years ago. They love it, and we are happy they enjoy making music. The teachers are fantastic. There are several recitals every year, which I love attending — it's a real treat!"
Why families choose us
Why Opus 1 Music Studio
Conservatory-trained teachers, premium instruments, and purpose-built studios — backed by 15+ years and 1,400+ students across the Bay Area.
Expert Teachers
Our 45+ teachers hold Bachelor's, Master's, or Doctorate degrees in music, pedagogy, and/or early childhood development — and they're employees, background-checked and fingerprinted, not gig contractors.
Premium Instruments
Students learn on acoustic grand pianos and professional-grade, well-maintained instruments at every campus — the same quality they'll perform on, not entry-level practice gear.
Purpose-Built Facilities
10,000+ sq ft across three Bay-Area campuses, with 30 private soundproofed lesson rooms, group classrooms, and recital-ready performance spaces.
Monthly Tuition
No yearly or semester commitments. Tuition is paid monthly, giving you the flexibility to switch instruments or withdraw at any time.
Flexible Scheduling
Need to reschedule a lesson? Not a problem. Reschedule your private lessons with your teacher or a substitute online.
Multilingual Lessons
Lessons are available in English, Chinese, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, and Russian.
Open All Year
Some music schools close for the summer — we're open all year long, closing only for major national holidays.
Comprehensive Exam Prep
While most schools only prepare students for the CM exam, we offer CM, RCM, and ABRSM exam preparation — with a track record of students performing at Carnegie Hall.
