Music Academy The Hague (MDH) is a house full of music. Housed in a stunning 1927 Berlage-designed building on the Raamweg, we offer inspiring music education for any instrument and for students of all ages. Pleasure in making music is our top priority. Whatever your level or goals, and whatever place music occupies in your life, at MDH you will discover the music in yourself. We encourage students to experience the joys of playing music with others, and focus on “making music together.”
High quality music education
All our teachers are experienced, versatile and highly qualified musicians and teachers who provide students with the knowledge and skills to achieve their personal goals. For particularly talented students, we have developed a special program to prepare for the entrance exams for conservatories and other professional courses.
For us, high quality also means that we consider the technique of playing an instrument to be of essential importance; the greater the skill on one's instrument, the greater the pleasure of making music and the value you can add to ensemble playing!
Making music together
As much fun as music lessons are, to increase your skill on an instrument you must of course practise. This is largely an individual process, but it doesn't have to be limited to that: it is often from playing with others that you can get the motivation to improve yourself - and making music together is one of the most wonderful experiences! Our music academy is therefore committed to encouraging every student to play together with others, be it in a duo, ensemble, orchestra or band. We provide possibilities for ensemble playing in-house or offer possibilities through our collaboration with various ensembles and organizations in the city.
