Hi, and thanks for checking out the site. If you have questions about lessons go to the lessons tab, and call or email us. Any repairs should be dropped off during business hours. We only rent to customers who go to nearby schools or take lessons with us, sorry, no exceptions. If you want to sell us something, drop it off during business hours and give us at least 48 hrs. to assess the gear and give you a good price on it.

Toddler lessons are Wednesday at 3:30pm at Faith Summit Church. Sign up through the store.

We have rock band on Friday night and Saturday afternoon for students of the school. If you would like to be in one of the bands send us an email.

There are two recitals per year. One in the summer and one in the winter. Dates vary and it cost nothing for students to participate. They are held at the Faith Summit Church in McHenry.

If you want to do a recording send us an email. We can record tracks while each of you play in a room for a live recording. We don’t have the space to record a band live in the same room at the moment.

We need Trumpets, Bassoons, Bass Clarinets, and all styles of Saxophones. Inventory on other band instruments is great at the moment.

Pearl Street Music has one of the best lesson programs available in the industry that now includes toddlers on Wednesday afternoons from 3:30pm-4:15pm.

We offer a great program that fits the needs of any style of musician. We believe in lifetime musicians and strive to have every student, at any age, receive the most versatile and useful skill set possible.

Lessons are one on one, are held once a week, and last 30 minutes. We can help you find an instructor that fits your needs and schedule. We expect a monthly commitment from our students and a solid practice schedule in between lessons to ensure you and your teacher are getting the most out of the lessons. For most lessons we charge $25 per, which will be a total of $100 for a 4 week month. If it’s a 5 week month you will pay $125. For Voice, Violin, and B&WW, you pay $30 a lesson and it will be $120-$150.

We offer discounts to families with 2 or more siblings taking lessons, or if you want to take more than one instrument.

Make sure you get a sheet music stand for your music!!!

If you are unsure about committing to a month, You can do a trial lesson to see if you like it. We charge 1 lesson for that and you can continue or not. You can also do a month of trial lessons. You are welcome to use our house instruments for the trial.

If you are a band or violin student and need an instrument we can rent you one, or use ours for a trial.

If you can’t commit to a month we can’t sign you up so make sure to take sometime and think about your schedule. Parents can only sign up their kids, or someone who lives with said student. If another family member wants to sign someone up for a gift, we recommend a gift card so the student can choose their lesson day and time. We have over 200 students a week, so if none of our days work for you we can put you on a waiting list and call you when we have an opening.

We have 2 recitals a year for no charge and any student can participate.
