Crosby Music Academy A frequently asked question is: What do you learn in music lessons? Well, here at CMA our teachers make it a priority to get to know you on a personal level and to become familiar with your personal musical needs and goals. We do not treat every student the same in terms of what and how we teach. A 7 year old having their first guitar lessons will have very different needs that a fifty year old taking up piano for the 2nd time after having had lessons as a child. Learn the songs you want to learn!

Denise Thompson
Owner/Instructor
One of main goals here at Crosby Music Academy is to give quality music lessons but in a fun and innovative way. We never want lessons to be boring so we strive to make them interesting and creative while teaching the basic fundamentals that all students must learn to be successful.

I hope that if you or your child have ever thought about playing, or want to take their playing to the next level that you will give us a call. We would love to hear from you!

I took piano lessons from Denise when I was much younger. I couldn't recommend a more kind, patient, and devoted teacher than her. Denise's teaching facility will be my first choice for my future children to learn the musical arts.

This school is great with all ages of students. My kids have just bloomed on the piano since we moved to Crosby Music Academy.

I love my son taking lessons from Ms. Denise because she creates a learning environment that makes playing the piano fun and not stressful. She encourages Collin to do his best and gets him out of his comfort zone. He has never liked being in front of people but because of Ms. Denise's belief in his ability he has played in recitals not only for family but in front of the community. I recommend Ms. Denise to anyone wanting to learn the piano.

My son has been taking lessons with Ms. Thompson for a full year now and he absolutely loves it! She has ignited the spark that he had in his love for music and she has helped him cultivate this amazing talent he now possesses in playing piano. Ms. Thompson has done a tremendous job in balancing the learning with the FUN! My son looks forward to his lesson every single week. We couldn't ask for more!

I am Denise's oldest student and have tried other piano teachers over the years. I can honestly say that I learned more and advanced further in one year with Denise that I did in four years with my previous teacher. Her way of teaching is low-key and stress-free which is a very effective way to nurture the love of music with all students. I have recommended her to several people and plan on being with her until I am too old to drive!
