Welcome to Lake Oswego Music Academy! (LOMA)

“Why do we teach music?
Not because we expect you to major in music.
Not we because we expect you to play all your life.
Not so you can relax.
Not so you can have fun.

But:
so you will be human
so you will recognize beauty
so you will be sensitive
so you will be closer to an infinite beyond this world
so you will have something to cling to
so you will have more love, more compassion, more gentleness,
more good—-in short, more life.” An unknown poet
