Private Music Lessons

Would you like to learn play an instrument, sing, or develop skill on an instrument you already play? At Heartland, we offer private lessons in voice and piano. Our instructors are music professionals who work in the field and have at least a Master’s degree in Music. We provide lessons for individuals 16 and above, beginner through advanced levels. 

You earn college credit as a Music Major or a non-Music Major. Those not desiring credit can audit the course. Lessons are offered in Fall, Spring, and Summer semesters. Please register at least one week before the semester starts.

NOTE: DUE TO STAFFING ISSUES, WE ARE CURRENTLY UNABLE TO SCHEDULE MUSIC LESSONS. WE ANTICIPATE OFFERING LESSONS AGAIN STARTING IN SPRING 2026

Non-majors should take MUSI 196, 197, 198, 199 for 1 or 2 credit hours and can take up to four credits toward completion of the associate degree.
