Music lessons that are fun and stress-free!

Maestro Makers is rooted as a premier in-home music school, currently serving the Milwaukee, Wisconsin and Denver, Colorado and surrounding areas.

Our roster of instructors are not only some of the most talented music teachers around but also performers of the highest caliber. Here the same engaging mentors inspire students to learn their instrument step-by-step, at their own pace.

Custom lesson plans for each student include developing the skills necessary for incremental progress. On a weekly basis music is learned during their lesson so students have the ability to practice independently. With 10-15 minutes a day to start playing an instrument will become a reality. A confidence-building and rewarding path to playing music for life. We come to you! Maestro Makers offers our in-home lesson program, providing convenience and saving families valuable time.

We offer music lessons in the Milwaukee & Madison, WI and Denver, CO areas. Maestro Makers teaches Bassoon, Cello, Clarinet, Drums, Flute, Guitar, Harp, Oboe, Piano, Saxophone, Trombone, Trumpet, Tuba, Ukulele, Viola, Violin, and Voice.

“Choosing Maestro Makers was one of the best parenting decisions we have ever made. The incredible convenience of having an in-home lesson has allowed our son to grow his confidence as a musician and student.”

“I have been taking lessons with Maestro Makers for a few years. I am an older student and very grateful for the fact that they come to my house. I would not make the effort to go to someone else’s studio. Lessons in my home have made it possible for me to continue with something that I truly enjoy and which would not have been possible otherwise.”

FAQ

Where do lessons take place?

All music lessons take place in the comfort and convenience of the student’s home. We currently offer instruction in the Milwaukee and Madison areas.

How often are lessons taught?

Typically, lessons are once a week. Maintaining a consistent schedule provides for the most effective learning and results.

How long are the music lessons?

Lessons are scheduled for either 30 minutes, 45 minutes or 60 minutes. A discussion with your instructor will help determine what is right for you.

What instruments do you teach?

Maestro Makers offers piano lessons, violin lessons, bass lessons, cello lessons, clarinet lessons, drums lessons, flute lessons, guitar lessons, harp lessons, saxophone lessons, trumpet lessons, bassoon lessons, oboe lessons, ukulele lessons, viola lessons, and voice lessons. On occasion, instructor availability may vary.

What ages do you teach?

Minimum ages vary by instructor and instrument. Contact us and we will help determine what makes the most senses for your particular situation. Just like the kids, adults are enthusiastically encouraged to begin music lessons, whether starting from scratch, advanced or someplace in-between.

Is there a long term commitment?

Lessons are on a month-to-month basis. Maestro Makers does not require long-term contracts.

Are there recitals?

Yes! Maestro Makers will have a school-wide recital at least once a year. For additional performance opportunities, ask your music teacher.

How much should I practice?

Practice recommendations vary by instrument, experience level, age, and your music teacher. Your instructor will make recommendation as to how much practice time should be allocated.

Do you have a referral policy?

Yes. Refer a friend to us and, once they complete 3 lessons, you get a credit for one free 30 minute lesson! The person that you refer should let us know that you provided the name in advance of starting any lessons. Refer as many times as you would like.

How do I pay?

Please refer to billing procedures, found in policies.

Am I allowed to cancel or reschedule lessons?

Cancellations are sometimes unavoidable. Please refer to our policies section for more details. Rescheduling is at the discretion and availability of your music teacher.

Who are your instructors?

All of our music instructors are highly regarded professional performers and teachers.

Are there any extra fees?

Other than purchasing music books or other materials needed for lessons, there are no additional administrative fees or hidden costs.

Do I need to own an instrument?

Other than voice lessons, you will need an instrument. Many students choose to rent before buying. If you are interested in piano and do not have one that’s acoustic, a full-size, 88 key, digital piano with weighted keys, is an appropriate alternative. As for drums, a full drum set is not required. Sticks and a practice pad serve as a good starting point. Your instructor can help determine what’s best for you.

  • Choosing Maestro Makers was one of the best parenting decisions we have ever made. The incredible convenience of having an in-home lesson has allowed our son to grow his confidence as a musician and student. Family and friends cannot believe how much talent was uncovered in such a short period of time, and look forward to hearing our son play whenever they have the chance.

  • We love that lessons are in our home. That is a big plus. Matt is great with our daughter, very patient, and a great teacher. She has made great strides with her piano skills.

  • Mr. Russell has played a very important role in helping to shape our daughter into a young musician. His most impressive quality is his patience. He's very good at explaining complex musical theory in multiple ways to help create a deep foundation and understanding of music. Mr. Russell has a deep passion for the violin, and he carries it through into his music instruction. He models proper etiquette and shares a very wide knowledge of music during his lessons. I am thankful that my daughter gets to see different ways that she may incorporate music into her future. She looks forward to her lessons and has grown so much in her musical journey. I believe Mr. Russell would be an asset in any musical capacity, and I give him my highest recommendation.

  • Paul taught our 15-16 year old son, Nicholas, cello until he relocated to Wisconsin last year. Nicholas was an introductory cello student–but played piano, violin, and trumpet for a number of years prior to taking up the cello. Paul was an energizing instructor with the skill, patience, and zeal for music that sparked Nicholas' passion in a way that a "conventional" teacher could not have. I particularly liked that Paul sensed Nicholas' passion and motivated him to work hard while enjoying the journey. I personally appreciate musicianship and immediately recognized Paul's skill at interpreting, playing, and communicating the inner workings of classical cello. I also saw that Nicholas resonated with Paul and learned more effectively as a result.

  • Emma is an amazing teacher to work with! She is very friendly, and very talented. She has helped me personally change my playing tone for flute, which is very beneficial. Along with tone, she has helped me work on technically challenging parts of a piece, and shows me different ways I can practice the section to help me learn the part very quickly. Emma is a phenomenal teacher and I enjoy working with her.

  • Emma continues to be an amazing flute instructor for my daughter. Once my daughter started taking lessons with Emma, her skill level has soared and Emma has given my daughter professional and academic advice that is priceless. My daughter and I highly recommend Emma to any student who wants to excel.
