Hello & Welcome!
My name is Hannah Mortensen,
and I'm the owner of Mountainside Music.
I’m so glad that you are interested in music lessons!
At Mountainside Music, we believe that learning to play an instrument isn’t just an option—it’s an essential part of a child’s growth and development.

Every student is unique, and we strive to provide lessons tailored to their learning style and personality. Whether it’s mastering classical pieces, exploring contemporary songs, or playing their favorite music, our goal is to keep students engaged, versatile, and excited about their progress.
We also believe that learning a variety of musical genres helps students grow as musicians, ensuring they stay inspired and motivated. After all, it’s much more fun to play music you love!
Our Story and Teaching Philosophy
My own musical journey has been shaped by dedicated and inspiring music teachers who made learning both challenging and enjoyable. When I began teaching at the age of 15, I knew I wanted to create the same experience for my students: a balance of structure, creativity, and fun.
