Non-notable music school (although the term "school" is stretching it). This was PRODed in 2008, but the PROD was removed by the article's creator. This organization/business is basically a center giving private music lessons. It is not a music conservatory with full time students or a full time faculty. It has no powers to award degrees or even diplomas. Despite extensive searching, I can find no coverage at all about the school apart from directory listings and the school's own pages. Nothing in Highbeam Research to which I have a subscription. Nothing in Google News (apart from a very brief announcement of a local artist who was exhibiting her paintings there). Nothing in Google Books. The founder (Elliot Page) is not notable either. All I could find were brief mentions in local press reviews of a band he was in before he founded the center. The only two "faculty" members listed in the article who are remotely notable (Daniel Bennett and Elena Zoubareva) apparently no longer teach there [http://www.pagemusiclessons.com/instructors/instructors.html], and the fact that they did is not mentioned in their WP articles nor is it supported by any other sources.

- Delete: Beyond the nom's extensive comments, heck ... I'm a musician who was associated on and off with one of the music schools in the area for over thirty years, and I've never heard of this outfit. I also note the sheer dishonest puffery involved -- the school's website claims "We're happy to be featured as Boston's top music school on CBS," but the link goes to a blogger on the Channel 5 (the local CBS affiliate)'s website, which reports a list of seven schools and teachers recommended to her by the fans on her Facebook page.

:Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

- Delete The school doesn't inherit any notoriety for having previously had instructors of "remote" notability, as notability is WP:NOTINHERITED once they had moved on, and the school has not accomplished anything notable in it's own right outside of any consideration to those absent persons. Taking that the local musician posting above has never heard of them, and the primary reference source is Facebook (non-notable, non-reliable), and a blog (non-reliable), there is basically nothing here to evaluate, reference, or retain.
