"We are thrilled to expand Bach to Rock's presence to the West Coast and we're confident Sacramento residents will love our variety of music programs," said Brian Gross, president of Bach to Rock.

We look forward to offering our fun, progressive curriculum to Sacramento families."

In 2012, Inc. magazine named Bach to Rock as one of the fastest-growing private companies in America for the second consecutive year and the Washington Business Journal named it the number one company to watch in 2012. Washington Family Magazine readers also voted it Best Music Instruction winner for 2012.

Bach to Rock is currently seeking candidates to open franchise locations in major metropolitan markets throughout the country.

Bach to Rock is an opportunity for entrepreneurs to build a business that is dedicated to helping children and adults learn to play the music they love. While music experience or ability is not necessary, candidates should be able to build a strong team of committed musicians to ensure the school's success.
