About
Helping students of all ages discover confidence, creativity, and a lifelong love of music through patient, personalized instruction
Our story
Where Music Becomes a Lifelong Journey
Lifelong Music School was created with one simple goal: to make high-quality music education welcoming, encouraging, and accessible for every student. Whether someone is picking up an instrument for the very first time or continuing years of musical study, every lesson is designed around the individual learner.
We believe that learning music is about much more than mastering notes on a page. It builds confidence, creativity, discipline, and a lifelong appreciation for the arts. Our supportive environment allows students to grow at their own pace while discovering the joy of making music.

Abrielle Scott
Flute • Piccolo • Chamber Ensembles
Abrielle Scott is a flutist, chamber musician, and educator known for her rich sound and versatility. Fueled by curiosity and collaboration, her work spans multiple styles and disciplines. An advocate for new music, Abrielle collaborates regularly with today’s composers and has premiered several works to date. Her most recent premieres include Whitney Sheng’s “Foxfire” for alto flute (2026, University of Miami), as well as a consortium premiere of Juri Seo’s “Birds, Bees, and Electric Fish” for two flutes and two percussionists (2024, Vanderbilt University). Abrielle is flutist with the South Florida New Music Collective, a performer-composer group dedicated to performing new works primarily written by composers of the South Florida community. As an interdisciplinary artist, Abrielle often features elements of technology, literature, and visual art in her work.
An educator particularly interested in amplifying voices of Black and Brown musicians, Abrielle has recently collaborated with the National Flute Association and Music by Black Composers, an organization dedicated to inspiring and diversifying audiences and performers of classical music, to make reference recordings of their first volume of Beginner to Elementary level flute music. In June 2026, she was a flute teaching fellow at the Boston University Tanglewood Institute, where she taught masterclasses and coached student ensembles of the festival’s Woodwind Quintet Seminar. Abrielle also maintains a private studio for students of all ages and backgrounds.
Currently based in New York City, Abrielle is pursuing a Doctorate of Musical Arts at the CUNY Graduate Center under the tutelage of Professor Tara Helen O’Connor. Abrielle has recently received a Master’s degree from the University of Miami’s Frost School of Music, where she was a flute studio teaching assistant and Henry Mancini Institute Orchestra Fellow. Abrielle also holds a Bachelor’s degree from Vanderbilt University’s Blair School of Music.
