For $10, today's side deal gets you two 30-minute music lessons for any instrument (up to a $44 value) at the Academic Music School, with locations on Oxford and Adelaide.

An affiliate of the Mayron Cole Music Conservatory, the Academic Music School teaches students to master the notes and scores of musical masterpieces with a variety of instruments and music styles. Budding Beethovens of any age or shoe size can construct symphonic sound waves on a piano, guitar, keyboard, trumpet, trombone, violin, cello, string bass, flute, clarinet, saxophone, drums, or their surgically inserted voice. Students can choose to focus on an array of music styles, such as classical, pop, Broadway, jazz, and more. The private lessons are conducted by university-trained instructors that are matched with neophyte music makers based on personality and instrument choice. With the exception of a piano and antique 100-foot pipe organ, all instruments must be supplied by students.
