Music Lessons, Camps & Choirs for All Ages

The Saint Leo University Community Music School is a welcoming place for music lovers of all ages and skill levels. From summer camps and community choir groups to private lessons, we offer meaningful ways to learn, perform, and grow through music—guided by Saint Leo University faculty members who are also professional musicians in the community.

The Community Music School was created for people throughout the region to practice their skills, to make new friends, engage with current friends, and perform, whether in small ensembles, bands, private lessons, or the Florida Chorale (Community Choir). Our professional musicians have decades of performance and teaching experience, and they are excited to nurture new and current talent for those who love music and wish to be part of our community. - Dr. Chantelle MacPhee, Department Chair of English, Music, and the Arts
