Excelsis School of Music is one of London’s most trusted music schools, providing exceptional music lessons in London for babies, children, teenagers, and adults. Based in Southgate, North London (N14), we offer professional tuition in piano, violin, guitar, singing, music theory, and more — delivered by DBS-checked, highly qualified music educators.
Our philosophy is simple: every student deserves teaching that is personalised, inspiring, and results-driven. Whether your child is picking up an instrument for the first time or you’re an adult returning to music after years away, Excelsis London Music School creates a warm, structured environment where every learner thrives.
From early starters to adult returners looking for piano lessons for adults, our courses have something for all. Our signature The Budding Musicians Programme provides young beginners with a very early introduction to music, whilst group piano lessons foster peer-to-peer learning and development in a communal setting.
By tailoring programmes to personal needs and developing an appreciation for music right from the beginning, we enable students to become confident, informed musicians. Enjoy plenty of performance opportunities, such as our annual students’ concert, where all, ranging from children in group piano class to adults in piano class, take center stage.
Karen has been teaching my boys from the age of 3. They have both learnt to read music and start playing the piano before they could even read and write. It has been truly amazing to watch. Karen is an incredibly talented music teacher and is particularly great with young children. They magically listen to her more than they do to me! In addition, she is excellent with the parents too. I especially like that she always takes the time to explain her methods and where each child is up to so that we, the parents, have the necessary tools to continue helping them with their music and piano playing at home.
Excelsis Music offers piano, violin, viola, cello, guitar, singing, flute, recorder, music theory, musicianship, choir, and ensemble lessons. Programmes are available for babies, young beginners, aspiring teens, and adult learners, ensuring a complete musical journey for all ages.
