“I had my first lesson via Skype with Jeremy Roberts today and it went very well. I felt very comfortable with him and his style of teaching left me feeling encouraged and with the sense that I have come to the right place for real growth in my…playing. I’m excited and looking forward to my next lesson. Now it’s time to enjoy and get to work on my homework. Perfect practice makes perfect with Sage.” – Ken Gill, Google Reviews
Our students have included cast members of Saturday Night Live, Broadway performers, and producers coming to work on their keyboard skills. We’ve even helped students prepare for graduate degree auditions.
We go above and beyond other programs by developing more advanced skills, practice habits, and learning techniques. You’ll learn more music, in a shorter amount of time, and with greater skill and security.
As an advancing flutist, we’ve got the skills to get your flute playing to the next level. We’ve worked with beginners and pros, so we know exactly how to get you from one level to the next.
Don’t want to play kids songs? No worry! We’ll work with you to help you play the music that you want. We personalize our lessons for you.
Sometimes we can jump right in with what you want, but other times it takes a little prep work. But we’ll always get you there.
In fact, most of our flute students are adult beginners. So you’ll find a welcoming environment with a team that knows how to work with folks just like you.
Most of our students come to us after they have tried lessons somewhere else. They tried video courses or lessons that weren’t personlized for them – YouTube, TakeLessons or generic flute lesson videos. They took lessons with teachers who were not trained professionals.
And they just didn’t see the results they wanted.
They didn’t get better or ended up frustrated. They paid for videos but still had to teach themselves. They took lessons with someone who showed them what to do, but not how to do it.
And that left them unhappy. Feeling like they wasted time and money. So they looked for a better program.
The good news is that you’ve just found the #1 science backed program, guaranteed to get you results. That’s the Arpeggio® lessons system, designed right here at Sage Music®.
Just like you, we want to see your kid have fun, enjoy music, and grow into a capable, successful adult. And we also know you want a program you can trust because you are busy with so many things.
That’s what we’ve designed our Arpeggio® lesson system to do. Systems such as Suzuki, ABRSM, the Royal Conservatory simply provide a sequence of songs to play. But our system is designed to develop your child’s skills, enabling them to play any music they want. That’s real growth, and real learning.
In addition, our system provides you with detailed notes every week so you can stay in touch with your child’s development. Plus your child will have the opportunity to perform every week in our student sharing hour, in our open mics, or in our regular recitals. This gives you results that you and your child can see.
Plus, your child can meet other students at Sage Music and practice or play music in our Music Match and Sharing Hour programs. Peer learning is an effective way for your child to grow, plus stay engaged while learning flute from home.
Music Match provides for a more focused one-one-one experience, while the Sharing Hour is about social learning experiences.

I’ve been at sage music for just about three months and already see much progress and feel more focused. Thank you Michael Conklin for teaching me, guiding me, and caring for my success.“

While they are similar, the types of flute are all slightly different to play and are used for different music. If you need help choosing the right kind of flute for your lessons, let us know. We’ll be happy to help.
While many flute schools promote classical music, we focus on your goals. Popular music is great because it speaks to our time. Not some other time in some other place.
We are happy to work with you on the music that you want to learn.
If you want to play the music of today, you’ll learn a solid flute technique just like our classical students. But we’ll apply your flute skills to the music that you want to play.
Many of our students are interested in learning the music of the past masters of the flute like Brahms, Chopin, Liszt, Beethoven and Mozart. This music requires a high level of focus, precision, and skill. Our faculty, with master’s degrees in flute performance, have performed this music all over the world and gained the experience necessary to help you develop the skills you need to making meaningful and masterful performances of this great repertoire. Many of our students learn this music for fun, while others are preparing for Master’s Degree, College, or competitions like NYSSMA. Whatever your goals, we are happy to help you flourish as a classical flutist.
Sage Music offers private flute lessons with the finest and most dedicated instructors, committed to your growth as a musician, and as a person.
We look at almost every conceivable area of learning the flute and music, so you can learn to play quickly and easily.
For example, students will focus on tone production to play beautifully, the technique involved to play effortlessly, and how to practice so that you make the most of your practice time outside of your lessons.
Our goal is to give you the skills to play any music that you want. So in addition to the types of flute, you can try many different styles. We won’t hold you to a particular style, so you get to be you! Let us know what styles of flute you want to play!
