About Us

Southern Oregon School of Music offers private and group lessons in piano, guitar, ukulele, violin, cello, and singing. Our Kindermusik Program offers delightful music & movement classes for ages 0-7.

Our team of experienced teachers provides music lessons designed to nurture musicianship, unlock each student's potential, and promote community and family.

The school was founded as ''Music4Kids'' by Deborah Pratt. Deb started out with a few Kindermusik classes in a rented classroom at the Gilbert Creek Early Childhood Development Center in 1999. Music4Kids grew rapidly over two years and opened as a retail store in the Town Center Plaza in 2001 where it continued to grow to include five teachers offering Kindermusik, music lessons, and a youth choir. The store also offered band and orchestra instrument rentals and the sale of instrument accessories, children's musical instruments, and sheet music.

In 2005 the name was changed to Great Northwest Music, and in 2008 Teresa and Andy Martin purchased the store. After a hiaitus of 5-years, Deb returned to Great Northwest Music to help revitalize the Kindermusik program which eventually outgrew the space at Great Northwest Music. Once again taking the name Music4Kids, the school opened at its current location, 141 NW C Street, in May 2017. In July 2025, we expanded to occupy the entire top floor and rebranded from Music4Kids to Southern Oregon School of Music to better reflect our growing programs and the wide range of students we serve.
