Innovative New Music School Opens In Plainville

Bristol and Southington Observer

The Macri School of Music opened for business on January 1st, 2002 in Plainville. Though just recently venturing into business on his own,, proprietor and chief instructor Frank Macri has been teaching in association with various retail chains for more than 15 years. This long and varied experience has led Frank to develop an innovative and comprehensive approach to music instruction.

“First of all, I listen to my students. I need to know what they hope to gain from their sessions. What is their current skill set? What types of music do they enjoy, and what goals do they hope to achieve? These are all areas that need to be taken in consideration before an individualized lesson plan is drafted. It has been my experience that my students advance at an accelerated rate because they enjoy coming each week.”

“I offer a number of extra-curricular programs (at no additional charge) designed to enhance the students’ individual programs. These enrichment programs cover a variety of forums; Acoustic Nights, Jam Sessions, Band Nights, etc. Each of these programs fortifies the talents, confidence and musicianship of my students. I strongly encourage participation-because I’ve seen how well it works!” Frank has taught hundreds of guitarists over the past decade and a half. He has proudly coached, coaxed and praised many budding talents over the years. His dedication towards excellence in teaching continues.
