One private piano lesson from the school voted "Best of Berkeley." Golden Key can train and inspire children and adults, ages five and up.

"We help our students on their paths to achieve those human qualities which are impossible to attain without music. We help them understand and enjoy the beauty of musical literature and share it with their family and community."

"We believe that love is the golden key in the learning process. Music is something that everybody is able to love. Our approach is to nurture this innate love so that it can flourish. To that end we put emphasis on the meaning of music. Using only meaningful and inspiring music in our lessons, we introduce students to something which is understandable and makes sense. Our philosophy is that teaching should be based on individual needs. We provide every single student with different pieces according to her/his character, age, taste and individual qualities."
