Founded in May, 2017, the Academy of Music Performance and Education (AMPED) was the brain child of the Taylor family (Bob, Dina, Max, and Allie) and sprung from the desire to be able to wake up every morning, do what we love to do, and share our enthusiasm and passion for music with others.
Amped became a reality with the generous financial contribution of Charles Feldman, a prolific composer,
and the grandfather of Max and Allie.
All of our teachers are professional musicians, and actively earn income working in the music industry. They possess the skills and knowledge necessary to proficiently teach music theory and technique to students of all ages and levels of musicianship. Most importantly, our passionate teaching staff create a learning environment that is welcoming, encouraging, and a lot of fun!

AMPED SCHOLARSHIPS
The Feldman Family Music Scholarship Fund was established in 2017. Lea Feldman was an accomplished Opera singer, and her husband Chuck Feldman was a prolific composer of Jewish music. Their generous donation helped AMPED open its doors in 2017.
Lea and Chuck were passionate about music, and believed every child should be able to receive a music education. We know that some of our current students, from time to time, may struggle to pay for their music lessons, and we are committed to assisting those students via our scholarship fund so that they are able to continue to pursue their music education. We also know that the same committed families, when they are able, will in turn pay forward the gift of music to another family in need.
