Kirk’s Studio For the Performing Arts

Specialties

Kirk’s Studio for the Performing Arts is the Valley’s premier studio for musical instruction. We offer three convenient locations in Scottsdale, Desert Ridge, and Mesa. We teach piano, voice, guitar, drums, band and orchestra instruments to students of all ages in private and group environments.

Our faculty is second to none. We offer performance opportunities that you simply will not find anywhere else. We work with young, first-​time beginners all the way through advanced students looking to make a career as a performer or musician.

Our students perform regularly at nursing homes, malls and traditional recitals. One of the highlights of the year is the annual Studio Showcase at a major venue: Ikeda Theater at Mesa Arts Center, Scottsdale Center for the Arts and The Orpheum, to name a few. We have also performed at Cooperstown and US Airways Center.

One unique feature of our studio is our system for «leveling up.» Always wanted to know if your student was actually making progress? Now you will. If you’re looking for a private music teacher that is a cut above, you’ve come to the right place. Contact us today for more information!

History

Established in 2001.

Kirk’s Studio for the Performing Arts was founded by Kirk Taylor, a professional musician and teacher for over 25 years. We started teaching out of our home and a year later moved into the studio in Scottsdale. The growth was quick and within a couple years we were scouting for a second location.

We opened our second location just off the 101 at the Cave Creek exit in North Phoenix in February of 2013. We are now the Valley’s largest studio for music instruction.
