Best Music Lessons

At Scotty's Music School, we take pride in being one of Cape Cod's longest running and most respected music lesson programs. With over 35 years of experience and thousands of happy students, we have established ourselves as a premier music education institution in the area.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide high-quality music lessons that cater to students of all ages, styles, and levels of experience. We believe that music should be fun, engaging, and accessible to everyone. Our expert instructors, led by Scotty West, will create a custom program tailored to your individual needs and goals. We'll help you learn to play the smart, fun, and modern way, so you can think on your instrument, get the big picture, and become the player you've always wanted to be.

Our Services

We offer private lessons for a variety of instruments, including acoustic and electric guitar, piano, keyboards, bass, ukulele, music theory, song writing, ear training, MIDI, recording, and digital media production. Our individually tailored lesson programs allow students to explore their creativity, improve their skills, and achieve their musical goals. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced musician, we have the expertise and resources to help you take your music to the next level.

What Sets Us Apart

What sets us apart from other music schools is our unique "music as language" approach to music education. This approach helps students understand music as a language, rather than just a series of notes and chords. This comprehensive understanding enables students to think on their instrument, improvise, and create music that is truly their own. Our experienced instructors, state-of-the-art facilities, and competitive rates make us the go-to choice for music lessons on Cape Cod.
