“We are happy to be opening our newest school in Fairfax County, Virginia.  Especially during these challenging times, parents need options to keep their children engaged in fun, interactive and stimulating activities,” said President of Bach to Rock, Brian Gross.   Music lessons with Bach to Rock help students build teamwork, develop social skills, foster self-esteem, promote peer recognition, and lead to lasting friendships.  “While we are still in the midst of the pandemic, Bach to Rock is providing families a hybrid model of education, which features in-person lessons, virtual lessons, or a combination of both. The new Bach to Rock model offers families a variety of options and flexibility,” Gross continued.

Bach to Rock Fairfax offers programs for students of all ages including: individual and group lessons in piano, voice, guitar, drums and more; “Rock City” for preschoolers and “Rock and Roll” for toddlers; beginning piano “Kids n Keys” for children in grades K-2; and summer camps and birthday parties.

Meet Bach to Rock Multi-School Franchisee Sameer Patel

At the helm of the Fairfax school is Bach to Rock franchisee Sameer Patel, a Bach to Rock grassroots success story.  He first became aware of Bach to Rock when he enrolled his two children at the Bethesda, Maryland school. Noting its success and popularity, he began considering opportunities to become a franchisee, ultimately deciding to become a franchise investor of the Bristow, Virginia school.  Then three years later in 2018, he opened his second school in Fulton, Maryland.  Now, he is thrilled to be opening his third school. “The Bach to Rock method of music education has an amazing impact on children and adults.  The transformation is wonderful.  I’m excited to help people in the Fairfax area express their creativity through our fun and inventive music education programs,” said Patel.

Changing the Way Students Learn Music 

Bach to Rock is reshaping music education on a national scale by turning solitary, boring music lessons into a group activity that is more like a team sport.  B2R focuses on providing a well-balanced music education because, ultimately, that is what parents are looking for. Students learn the intricacies of music — from theory to how to read music. Bach to Rock is the music school kids would have designed for themselves.  They get to jam with other kids right away and play current hits. The learning is the same, but the enjoyment factor is much higher.
