About Us

At Evshón Music, we believe that music education should be as inspiring and unique as the students who pursue it. Founded by Sonya Eve Shalyagina, a renowned pianist who has performed at Carnegie Hall and graduated with honors from Berklee College of Music, Evshón Music was built on a vision: to offer world-class, boutique music instruction tailored for every age and every stage of learning. With over a decade of teaching and performing experience, Sonya brings both artistry and pedagogy to each lesson, creating an environment where students can truly thrive.

Unlike large, impersonal programs, Evshón Music offers private, in-home and remote lessons designed around the lifestyle and goals of each student. From children discovering their first notes to teenagers exploring DJing and music production, to adults reigniting a lifelong passion, our lessons meet students exactly where they are. Every session blends solid technical foundations with creative freedom—ensuring students not only develop strong skills but also find joy and confidence in self-expression.

Our curriculum is intentionally comprehensive and flexible. We offer:

  • Piano & Instrument Lessons rooted in classical and contemporary traditions.

  • DJing & Music Production programs designed to give younger students and adults alike the tools to explore one of today’s most exciting forms of expression.

  • Music Theory & Composition coaching to build a deep understanding of music’s language and unlock advanced creativity.

At the heart of Evshón Music is a belief in personalization and progress. Lessons are milestone-based, allowing students to track their growth while celebrating achievements along the way. Parents gain peace of mind knowing their children are not only learning but also developing discipline, focus, and confidence through music. Adult learners benefit from a tailored, inspiring approach that adapts to busy schedules and creative goals.

Our boutique service model ensures that every student receives the time, care, and attention they deserve. Whether we’re preparing a child for their first recital, guiding a teen through the basics of production software, or helping a professional polish their technique, Evshón Music delivers luxury-level teaching with the warmth of one-on-one mentorship.

We are proudly Los Angeles–based, with a growing community of students who are proof that music is more than notes on a page—it’s a lifelong companion, a creative outlet, and a transformative journey. At Evshón Music, we don’t just teach music. We nurture artists.
