From the Director - Diller-Quaile School of Music


Kirsten Morgan
Welcome to The Diller-Quaile School of Music– a community music school founded in 1920 by pianists Angela Diller and Elizabeth Quaile. Whether you are just beginning your involvement in music or if music has always been an essential part of your life, come and explore Diller-Quaile's broad and comprehensive offerings including: music for infants, music and art classes for young children, individual and group lessons for instrumentalists and singers of all ages, ensemble and performance opportunities, the high school certificate program, adult chamber music workshops, graduate level teacher training courses, and evening and weekend concerts. Diller-Quaile's exemplary programs embrace artistic vitality and foster the development of musicianship at every age and level. The School's highly qualified and experienced faculty are dedicated to helping each student realize his or her full potential. Learning at Diller-Quaile takes place in a vibrant, supportive, and engaging school culture where the joys of music-making, creativity, and the pursuit of artistry are deeply valued.

The pages on this web site encompass a wide array of programs and courses in the Early Childhood, Instrumental and Vocal, Adult, Teacher Training, and Outreach Departments, as well as information on concerts and master classes. Each is designed with the individual in mind, and each promotes musical growth – the development of knowledge, skills, and expressivity – while fostering personal fulfillment.

We are pleased to provide program advisement throughout each student's musical journey. Come join us for an inspiring and rewarding year.

With all best wishes,
Kirsten Morgan
Executive Director
