We are featured in the Spring '23 issue of Ballantyne Magazine!! 


Happy 11th Anniversary, Ballantyne School of Music!

We were honored to have Victor Wooten at our studio for a private clinic.  Our students and local musician friends were thrilled to have the opportunity to meet him face to face and learn some new techniques.

We did it again!!


We were honored to be asked to participate in this exclusive photo shoot for the Fall 2023 edition of Ballantyne Magazine, highlighting south Charlotte's newest outdoor music venue - The Amp!!  It was such a fun night getting to set up and rock out on that big, beautiful stage and to see what it's going to feel like to perform at that cool venue!!  Our kids were BEYOND excited to be there!! 


Also featured in this issue is one of our talented vocal instructors, Amanda Sanchez!  Click here to read more!

So blessed to have had some of Contemporary Jazz's BEST visit our studio over the years!  Keiko Matsui and Paul Brown have made appearances at Ballantyne School of Music, and some have even jammed with our instructors and students!!  It's so wonderful when professional musicians take time out of their busy schedules to share with our students!

John Lennon Educational Tour Bus


On October 23, 2013, we had the opportunity to host the John Lennon Bus at the Morrison Family YMCA!  What a great day!  Dozens of Charlotte families got the chance to meet the JLB crew, tour the mobile studio, play their musical equipment, and see some of the great videos that have been recorded on this one-of-a-kind music studio on wheels!
