We’re pleased that you’ve found us and have a safe place to learn music online while exercising “social distancing”. Yes we have to stay at home, but we don’t have to disconnect.

During this crisis period we want to make coming here to learn music a bit more affordable. Please keep an eye on the home page of ArtistWorks.com for discounts we’ll continue to offer. Now is a great time to invite a friend to join you here! You’re all welcome here and I hope this video is helpful to your learning experience.

Howard Levy Valentines Lesson

It’s mid-February, and you know what that means: love is in the air. While chocolates or flowers may sound like an ideal gift for your loved one, we’ve got another idea for any harmonica player out there — play them a new tune! And what better serenade for your significant other than the sentimental classic, “My Funny Valentine.”
