Frank Young has been in the industry a long time. If you look back over his 30+ years as a professional musician, you’ll see him gigging professionally, teaching all over the world, and applying his skills in the recording studio. After graduating with a Bachelor of Music from the University of Auckland, Frank went on to study Jazz Performance at Massey University. He also holds a Diploma in Music
Teaching from Rockschool UK. In his own teaching, Frank’s focus is on contemporary guitar and vocals, with an emphasis on Pop, Rock and Jazz. However, since starting Frank’s Music School he has brought on other tutors to offer lessons in all the contemporary instruments at multiple locations throughout the Auckland region. When you sign up for lessons, you'll work with one of our awesome tutors to develop the skills and techniques you'll need to enjoy the music you want to play. You'll work through different repertoire and test your skills by participating in Rockschool exams. When you're ready, your tutor will encourage you to participate in Band Ensembles. Your ensemble will work with a tutor to develop performance skills, stage presence, and band dynamic. You'll be rocking out on stage at one of our performances in no time! Music is meant to be shared. At Frank's Music School you'll get the opportunity to put what you're learning into practice with regular opportunities to perform. Step on stage for the first time in front of your friends and family at one of our student concerts, or rock the stage for the crowd at community music festivals or events. Every experience is good experience. Knowing how to use modern music making technology is essential for musicians. Whether you're laying down an original song or just taking a snapshot of where you're currently at with your playing, Frank and the team will help you develop the skills you need so you can use the technology to enhance your learning and produce your own music.
