About
We teach each student in the way that helps them to play music well and soon. That's what anyone starting an instrument wants: music, enjoyment. We are careful to ensure good muscle development and musical virtuosity but we do it in a way that makes students eager to practice and perform. Adults who had an instrument in the closet for years can now play it well. Adults who always dreamed of playing an instrument find themselves enjoying their new found skills. Young players: We have been very lucky to have worked with some fabulous kids over the years. We've been able to travel with them to perform and compete on the world stage. Parents are often amazed that their child has what it takes to become a world class musician. It takes a solid teaching program, caring teachers and kids who are engaged. Talent is overrated, as the book of the same title says. Kids who work hard go far. If a child just wants to have fun playing music, we're on board with that, as well.

lessons are individual for half an hour each, but most students come and spend all day playing music and having fun. The Chole's are more than instructors to the kids, they become part of there family. My child started lessons at the age of 4 and after 7 years still can't wait to get to lessons every saturday!!

The toe-tapping spirited music of Ireland comes alive in the home of the founders of the Murphy Roche School of Irish Music. The atmosphere is very welcoming and you feel a sense of community while learning all aspects of the Irish music culture. The students learn how to play by ear by watching videos on their website and by recording their teacher playing the tune or technique introduced during the lesson and practicing with it throughout the week. The students also reinforce their learning by teaching it their fellow student(s). My eight-year-old daughter has been attending for the past year and a half and has this to share with you...'I love playing music with my friends and learning new tunes - reels, jigs, slip jigs and polkas - every Saturday. I also love that I've learned how to sing a few songs in Gaelic.

Very unique music school that offers a lot of opportunities to perform the Irish music through weekly sessions and variety of concerts. Very warm atmosphere. My daughter loves the interaction with other young musicians during her weekly lessons.

Murphy Roche provides a fine resource for the young musician as well as the adult who is interested in exploring the world of Irish music. I am a guitarist who was recently inspired to learn the tenor banjo. It’s been a great experience learning a new instrument in an extremely supportive environment.

Great way to introduce my 3rd generation grandchildren to our Irish heritiage. Introductory complimentary lesson; Adjustable weekly scheduling; Kids of all ages meeting, learning Irish tunes and eventually performing together at local venues; convenience of paying weekly by the lesson; Very positive but accountable teaching style!
