The Eisman Center for Preparatory Studies in Music (ECPSM) offers a complete children’s music program, ages 3 through 18, who wish to develop performance skills and an understanding of music theory and literature. We welcome children at all levels.
ECPSM is a comprehensive music school, offering a wide variety of programs. Classes include: private lessons for all orchestral and band instruments, as well as piano, voice, guitar, and composition; Suzuki piano, violin, and cello classes; musicianship; orchestra; chamber music; chorus and percussion ensemble.
In 1981, ECPSM opened its doors at the Queens College facility at Caumsett on Long Island. We began with 25 students taking classes and a small but enthusiastic faculty.
Now over forty years later, we are in a state-of-the-art building on the Queens College campus. Our professional faculty are highly dedicated and experienced. Our alumni and current students bring honor to themselves and ECPSM in festivals and competitions at home and overseas. ECPSM, located at Queens College’s Aaron Copland School of Music, services residents of the five boroughs of New York City, as well as Nassau, Suffolk, and Westchester counties.
We welcome you to join our musical family and explore the many opportunities available to students enrolled in the program.
