Craig Smith Music is based in Preston and operates throughout the North West, offering various musical services in surrounding towns including Blackburn, Blackpool, Lytham, Chorley, Lancaster, Burnley and elsewhere in Lancashire. The majority of students take piano lessons and keyboard lessons with or without music theory, although lessons are also available in more specialised areas such as composition, arranging, and music technology.
Vacancies out of typical office hours with Craig are very rare. They fill quickly, and there is a waiting list for slots that aren't currently available, so please visit regularly and get in touch quickly if you see a suitable slot! We now have teachers working with us to place new students in and around Preston, Kirkham and Chorley; see below for details.
