Musicmatters is an institute dedicated to music education of exceptional quality. With a vision of increasing music appreciation in Sri Lanka over the next generation, Musicmatters offers training in a broad range of genres including Western classical, jazz, rock, pop, Indian classical and Sri Lankan traditional music. Learning music is beneficial to people of all ages, especially children, regardless of professional aspirations. Our international-level music education programmes aim to develop students’ musical potential along with creativity, imagination, personal development, social skills and lateral thinking. We offer a combination of instrument tuition, instruction in music theory and - most importantly - group performance opportunities, as a principle means of accomplishing this objective. Musicmatters intends on being a melting pot for professional musicians - promoting improvisation, experimentation and innovation - and serving as a platform for musicians to rise up to international standards. ___________________________________________________________ NewsThursday night Jazz Nights are currently on!
