Play Tunes Institute of Music was established in 2004 due to overwhelming demand for a second location of our affiliate music school, Classic Music & Arts Institute. Our parent company, Tunes Trading & Services (Tunes Oman) is the first leading music retail and events rental company in Oman. Founded in 1991, by Zak Pachiyannakis, the company began when Zak was looking to buy a piano for his childr
en. After not being able to source one in Oman, he decided to import one for himself which lead to a number of similar requests from across the Sultanate. Tunes Oman is now the largest importer of musical instruments with four retail locations and two music institutes. We focus on spreading music to children and adults while providing a fun yet professional learning environment. Today our music schools enroll over 800 students annually ranging in age from 15 months old to over 60 years. We offer a comprehensive, hands on approach using techniques such as voice, sound, rhythmic activities, instrumental instruction, games, and music theory. Our curriculum is carefully tailored to provide appropriate and unique learning materials for every student. Our faculty includes highly qualified instructors with extensive experience in teaching and performance. Their education credentials include Bachelor Degrees, Masters and a Doctorate. New students are provided with an introductory assessment to evaluate their needs, identify their preferred instrument, and create a suitable and individualized program. We are an approved examination center of the Trinity College of London, providing an internationally accredited and formal assessment process. We continue to develop our programs and supporting materials to offer the best and most flexible opportunities in music education.
