\"MusicMusic Education is the founding principal of Contemporary Music Center<\/h2>\n

The key to Contemporary Music Center\u2019s success centers around two principles.\u00a0 First, we strive to have excellent working relationships with the area\u2019s school music directors; secondly, we have associations with our region\u2019s best music teachers and working musicians. Not only do we have access to talented local teachers, but we have access to nationally accredited teachers as well.\u00a0 As a result, our customers benefit from our networks. It is the relationships we have nurtured that have helped CMC build our distinctive teaching staff.<\/p>\n

Helping young musicians plan a rewarding future<\/h3>\n

Because of the quality of our education programs, the area\u2019s school directors trust us, and we work hard to maintain that trust every day. More importantly, our families trust us, and recommend us to neighbors and friends. Additionally, CMC has gained national respect as well. We are the only music store in the region to win NAMM Dealer of the Year. \u00a0Moreover, an integral part of our mission is to help students and families navigate the higher education process. Therefore, CMC has maintained working relationships with notable universities.<\/p>\n

Rather than speak for ourselves, read what our customers and the local music community have to say.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

For years, Contemporary Music Center has stood as a cornerstone in Northern, VA. Renowned nationwide as a hub for musical community, it transcends the typical music store experience. CMC is a journey where musical aspirations take flight, skills are honed, and budding performers set sail on their careers.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>

Contemporary Music Center was vital in helping us establish a positive, inviting music culture at our new high school and the surrounding community at large. Between providing instruments for students, hosting events to bring together multiple schools, or stimulating a love and curiosity of the arts with their summer programs, CMC is the only place to go for music education.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>
