What We Do

• We run community music programs


• We offer enlightened music instruction for individuals and small groups


• We also work extensively with special needs children and adults


The Institute for Music and Health (formerly CPD Music) pioneers the use of music for wellness through a wide range of services, including professional training, enlightened music instruction, and community outreach programs. We work with everyone from beginners to professionals and are located in New York's Hudson Valley.

Our approach is based on the work of John Diamond M.D., the world's leading authority in using music for wellness. The Institute is the only one in the US authorized to teach Dr. Diamond's work.
