Join Us For A Monthly Open Mic!
We have one main goal: make music fun and inspiring for people of all ages, abilities and financial situations. Music lessons often get a bad rap for being boring, stuffy, and sometimes uninspiring. At Naptown Sings…and Plays! our teachers are upbeat, keep it fun, and cater to the interests of the students, all while ensuring a high-quality music education for all. Located in the heart of Annapolis we strive to be a staple in the community where anyone can go to be musically enriched. Annapolis is a musical town. We thrive through our local music scene, community theatres, parades and festivals, local venues, and our growing Arts District. Naptown Sings and Plays! is here to carry on the torch of Annapolis’ musical heritage through the next generation.

Music Programs for All Ages in Annapolis, MD
We are so happy to be able to offer music programs from birth through adulthood. Our Musikgarten: Family Music for 0 to 3-year-olds, parent and me style class is a great way to instill music at the earliest age. As the little ones progress, we offer a Music Immersion class for 3 to 5-year-olds, designed to teach musical skills before taking up an instrument. As students enter elementary school, we offer leveled Glee Clubs, and Private Voice and Instrument Lessons to nurture your child’s musical development in a more technical way while inspiring each child through their interests. Glee Clubs and Lessons continue throughout Middle and High School to allow students to hone their musical proficiency. Private Lessons at the studio are available for students of any age. Yes, you can still pick up the guitar at 70! Learning an instrument is great, but putting that instrument to use is equally important. At Naptown Sings and Plays! we have created a community of music through regular open mics, bi-yearly recitals, concerts at the end of each Glee Club session, regular gigs at the BEST Annapolis festivals, and outreach to local schools and beyond. We are proud to be a one-stop musical resource for Annapolis music, and don’t forget about our Summer Camps! Join us to see why the hype around us is so real!

Fall is the perfect time join Musikgarten!
Why Musikgarten (Ages 0-3)?
These programs are revolutionary. The foundation for a child’s music aptitude, or potential for music learning, is laid in those crucial early years of development. Musikgarten is a holistic, comprehensive, and research-based music learning program that immerses students in music from birth to age 5, by introducing nurturing elements of singing, listening, movement and play. Musikgarten dives deeper than that, with the extramusical benefits of enhancing your little one’s cognitive, social, emotional, motor, impulse control, and language development. Additionally, Musikgarten trains parents to give children quality music experiences at home. Join us to experience the transformative power of early music education.

✨10 Years In Business✨
.
Today, for me, is like opening night. The start of a new year and a new season of music education. The product of pull-your-hair-out back breaking work to make sure it all goes off without a hitch (or maybe a few) and that every child has the musical experience they choose.
.
When I first moved into this space, I stared at this scene in awe before shutting the lights each night, pinching myself that it was mine.
.
It is easy to become jaded by entrepreneurship over the years, but my heart and soul is so proud of to own this place. My whole vision is here, dispersed through these colorful walls and brought to life each day with the passion of other musicians and educators who feel the same.
.
Happy 10 years Naptown Sings and Plays! Thank you to the thousands of families who have walked through our doors, and believed in the love of music. I still can’t believe you are mine.
