Why choose the PG Conservatory of Music?

We offer private and group instruction in a wide variety of instruments and styles for beginners to professionals. Here's what sets us apart:

We are a non-profit music school and registered charity

• Tuition goes directly to your teacher and back into the Conservatory to support our programs
• We work hard to keep tuition as low as possible while also making it possible for our amazing teaching team to thrive as professional musicians in Northern BC
• We work hard to raise funds for bursaries to make it possible for students from all financial backgrounds to participate in music lessons and offer a yearly scholarship competition for our most serious students
• We give back to our community with free and pay-what-you-can concerts by our professional faculty

Our teachers are highly qualified

• Our teachers are professional performing musicians with a minimum of a Bachelor of Music degree (or equivalent) with over 200 years of teaching experience collectively
• They are masters of their instruments and dedicated teachers who are passionate about seeing their students succeed
• They are integral to the PG music community including the PG Symphony Orchestra, PG Cantata Singers and Alban Classical 

We are a lot of fun!

• Recitals and social events provide kids and adult students the opportunity to make friends and support one another
• Although we love classical music we are happy to support students in the genres that they are most passionate about

But don’t take our word for it! Check out a few of the lovely things our students said about us this year:
