About us

We are a part time and full time music school offering lessons based in, Table View and Durbanville,  catering for every kind of musical enthusiast from the shower singer to the up and coming band member, from junior school goers and high school teens to the corporate business owner.

Legacy School of Music started from 2 friends who had a passion for teaching and a passion for seeing Kids and Adults come to love music and love playing their instruments. All of our teachers love what they do and as a result, love to see their students develop. “Legacy…Something achieved that is left to some one else who comes after you”. 

The name Legacy really resinates with us in that while you are developing your own talents, you to could be developing a Legacy that you may very well leave behind one day. As we grow, we to, wish to leave a mark behind for the future generations.
