The Nordenfelt Music School is the largest and oldest private music school in the municipality of Danderyd. We operate as a nonprofit organization and have been in existence since the 1940s, when the school was founded by Birgitta Nordenfelt—one of the 20th century’s most prominent figures in Swedish musical life.
Since then, generations of children, teenagers, and adults have discovered the joy of making music with us. Today, our activities are based at Djursholm Castle, which offers excellent transportation links and an inspiring environment for learning and creativity.
At the Nordenfelt Music School, we believe that music is best developed through the interaction between student and teacher. That is why we offer individual instruction, where each student has the opportunity to develop at their own pace and based on their own goals, interests, and abilities.
Whether the goal is to play for fun, develop a lifelong relationship with music, or prepare for music class or higher-level music education, instruction is tailored to each individual student. We welcome both beginners and more experienced students.
We offer lessons in piano and synthesizer, guitar (acoustic and electric), voice (classical and modern), electric bass, recorder, flute, violin, trumpet, rhythm, and music theory, as well as preparatory courses for music classes and higher music education programs.
Our dedicated teachers are professional musicians and educators with extensive experience teaching children, teenagers, and adults.

The Nordenfelt Music School is currently located in the northern wing of Djursholm Castle. Our facilities offer a peaceful and inspiring environment where students of all ages can develop their musical skills.
Many people appreciate the special feeling of coming to the castle grounds for their lessons. The historic setting, the beautiful surroundings, and the proximity to concerts and cultural life all help make music lessons more than just a class—they become part of a larger musical experience.
