Story

The Hamilton Community Centre of Music is a non-profit organization which has been providing affordable music tuition for many years. Our philosophy is to give all learners, regardless of age or experience, a broad and enjoyable musical experience.
Our students include both children and adults, and they all enjoy our special mix of learning and performance opportunities. These include instrumental and theoretical lessons, bands, orchestras, ensembles and from this year our new child-centred Music Makers classes for 3-12 year olds. With over 350 students, and running more than 90 sessions per week, we offer classes at very reasonable prices.
HCCM is committed to delivering high quality musical education, and our staff of over twenty experienced tutors all participate in our ongoing Professional Development Programme.
We are based in the Faculty of Education in the University of Waikato, and meet on Saturday mornings during term time at the Hamilton campus.
Whether starting out or wanting to learn more we can help you achieve your ambitions. Let your musical talents flourish – come and share with us the joy of music.
