Kennedy School of Music is a music school in Invercargill, founded in 2008, with its studio on the first floor in the city centre on Deveron Street. It teaches piano, guitar, drums, bass and voice, from first lessons to advanced tuition. The Keynotes piano programme is aimed at young beginners. Singers can join the Songbirds Junior Choir or the Nightingales Women's Choir for adults. The Band Programme gives players a chance to rehearse and perform together. Lessons come as one-on-one sessions, group classes or online, and the school will also visit schools to teach. Students take part in recitals and concerts, and one parent described the children's performance as a moment that let them shine. It suits families with children who want a structured start, and adults who want to sing or play with others.
