The Brooklyn Conservatory of Music aims to transform lives and build community through the expressive, educational and therapeutic powers of music.

Our Park Slope home offers private music lessons, group classes, ensembles and music therapy as well as 17 beautiful, affordable rehearsal studios open to all musicians.

BKCM’s programs reach more than 10,000 New Yorkers from all walks of life.
Programs & Rentals
BKCM encompasses five unique programs: Community Music School, Suzuki, Music Partners, Music Therapy and our Community Music Center in Cypress Hills/East New York. We also offer studio rentals in our Park Slope home as well as concerts and events for the whole community to enjoy.
Community Music School
Community Music School
Through our community engagement programs, BKCM brings high-quality music education and music therapy to thousands of students and clients at public schools and community-based organizations across the city.
Suzuki
Suzuki
The Suzuki program builds on the principle that if surrounded by a nurturing environment, all children can master music just as they learn their home language.
Music Therapy
Music Therapy
BKCM is among NYC’s largest providers of clinical music therapy, serving more than 2,000 people of all ages and abilities. Our credentialed music therapists work with clients at BKCM and at more than 40 community outreach sites citywide.
Music Partners
Music Partners
Music Partners was created in 1988 in response to a critical need: the rising number of NYC public schools offering no music instruction. It now serves nearly 4,000 students at 35 schools, youth centers and senior centers in Brooklyn, the Bronx, Manhattan, and Queens, making it the largest off-site music program of any community school in New York City.
Community Music Center
Community Music Center
The BKCM Community Music Center in Cypress Hills/East New York offers private instrument lessons, a Saturday Band Acadmy and a summer camp to students aged 1 to 14, at little to no cost.
