Piano & Music Classes for Kids in Andheri West, Mumbai
7 piano reviewed · 4,090 parent reviews · Updated 2026-06-22 · ★ 4.87 average
Andheri West and its adjacent neighbourhoods host a varied mix of music schools for piano and keyboard learners, from the intimate boutique sessions at BAM Academy in D.N. Nagar to the large multi-discipline campus of Spectrum Academy near Infiniti Mall. Juhu and Vile Parle East are within a short auto ride and add SoundMonk School of Music and Music For All to the options. Most schools here combine keyboard and piano instruction — ask upfront which instrument the curriculum centres on.
💡 BAM Academy's Brendan integrates ear training alongside notation from lesson one — if playing by ear matters to you, mention it during enquiry. Spectrum Academy shares practice rooms between guitar and keyboard batches, so ask for a time slot when guitar students are not in.

A boutique school run by Brendan and David in D.N. Nagar, Andheri West.

SoundMonk Music — Andheri West (Instrument Store, Not a School)
Shop 10, Ramjharoka Society, Opposite Mahindra Showroom, Swami Vivekanand Road, Andheri West · NOT a piano class — musical instruments retail and repair store only · ★ 4.7 (3,267 reviews)
SoundMonk Music on Swami Vivekanand Road is a musical instruments retail and repair store, not a piano teaching school. It sells and services guitars, keyboards, sitars, and other instruments. If you need to buy a keyboard before starting lessons this is a relevant stop — but for actual piano classes look at SoundMonk School of Music in Juhu (listed above) or the other schools here.
Cost: one reviewer felt Rs 350 for string installation was overpriced

Frequently asked questions
Which piano class in Andheri West is best for a complete beginner adult?
Recur's review of piano classes in Andheri West found that Music For All (Vile Parle East) and BAM Academy (D.N. Nagar) are the two most frequently recommended by adult beginners. Music For All's Ridhima builds confidence gently and always revisits the previous session before moving forward. BAM's Brendan integrates ear training from lesson one. Both keep batch sizes small enough for individual feedback each session.
Is SoundMonk in Andheri a music school or an instrument shop?
Recur's review of piano providers in Andheri West found two distinct SoundMonk listings. SoundMonk Music on Swami Vivekanand Road (Andheri West) is a retail and repair store for musical instruments — useful for buying a keyboard, not for piano lessons. SoundMonk School of Music in Juhu (the teaching branch) is the actual school with 261 reviews and experienced teaching faculty.
Which school is best for learning Bollywood songs on keyboard in Andheri?
Recur's review of keyboard classes around Andheri West found NG School of Music (Andheri East) the strongest option for Bollywood and Indian classical music. Founder Nanu Gurjar Ji blends both styles and Aaryan Sir handles keyboard and casio students. Symphony Music in Jogeshwari East also covers popular songs alongside its Gandharva classical curriculum and is notably budget-friendly.
Does Spectrum Academy's keyboard class get noisy from guitar batches running at the same time?
Recur's review of Spectrum Academy in Andheri West found that keyboard and guitar batches do share a practice room. At least one reviewer specifically mentioned waiting for guitar students to leave before practising a song. If you are sensitive to ambient noise during practice, ask Spectrum for a time slot when no guitar batch is scheduled — or consider BAM Academy or Music For All which have quieter individual setups.
