At the Christchurch School of Music (CSM) we<br />
know that music transforms lives because we<br />
see it every time our students – children, young<br />
people and adults – walk through the doors<br />
to their lessons or ensemble rehearsals with<br />
smiles on their faces, so pleased to see their<br />
friends and looking forward to making music.<br />
CSM is about so much more than the music -<br />
it is about community, identity and personal<br />
connections. From an engaging foundation<br />
program for 2-7 year olds through to high<br />
quality adult tuition, CSM caters to everyone<br />
