Yamaha Music School Markham is the flagship Yamaha Music School location in Canada. The globally proven Yamaha Music Education System Curriculum is delivered in our new, state-of-the-art facility equipped with the latest Yamaha musical instruments.
Our hallmark is the program for young children, which emphasizes ear training and creativity. The curriculum includes a variety of activities, including singing, keyboard playing, sight playing, ensemble work, and music composition. Our students not only play repertoire, they are also well-rounded musicians who can improvise and create their own music.
The Yamaha Music Foundation has completed extensive research illustrating that a child’s ear develops most rapidly between the ages of four and six. Since hearing development is so closely related to learning music, this is the ideal time to start developing music skills.
While programs for young children are our foundation, we also offer group and private lessons for all ages.

Structured Music Education System for Children & Adults
Designed to meet the unique needs and developmental stages of each age group, Yamaha programs develop each student’s comprehensive musical ability in an environment that inspires a love of music and a lifetime of active music participation
Yamaha develops musical skills with three fundamental principles:
Timely Education – INTRODUCING THE FUNDAMENTALS OF MUSIC FROM THE START
In order for children to enjoy music and to absorb and understand the given material easily, we believe it is best to give them appropriate guidance in accordance with the degree of their physical and mental development. Based upon this concept of timely education, the Yamaha method introduces music fundamentals to children at the time when their hearing capabilities are rapidly developing.
Group Lessons – WE ALL LEARN BETTER IN GROUPS
Group lessons have many advantages that enable children to enjoy rich musical experiences such as making friends through music, developing cooperativeness and deepening understanding of music through participation in ensembles. For this purpose, Yamaha has adopted a method whereby students can listen and play in a group, learning music while enjoying it.
Emphasis on Creativity – LEARNING THROUGH CREATING
In order to enable students to develop their creative capabilities, it is important to help them develop the ability to express themselves by thinking freely. We hope to help them acquire and enhance sensitivity and imagination, which are both sources of creativity, through our comprehensive system of music education.
