CAROL ARRUCCI - Owner/Founder of CSPA Music

Carol is an award winning, 30-year veteran music teacher. Opening CSPA has been a dream for many years and in 2012 became a reality when she and her husband opened the school in Croton. She retired from the Hen Hud School District to give CSPA her full-time attention. Carol has been passionate about training professional children and adults for over 25 years having done so in the community and on Broadway.  Besides teaching private voice and piano, she loves choral conducting, and has had many experiences conducting orchestras, accompanying vocalists and singing professionally. She is the founder and Musical Director of the 50+ member Westchester Women’s Chorus. The award winning Blue Mountain Middle School choirs were her pride and joy as a public school music teacher.  Carol's 'Dreamcoat Chorus' was cast in the Broadway show "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" which ran in NYC in 1993. Carol has also produced shows at The Paramount Hudson Valley, Westchester Broadway Theatre and other local venues, serving also as Musical Director for fundraising events at The Peekskill Hudson Room, Westchester Broadway Theatre and at CSPA.  She is proud to be the owner of CSPA, as the school is currently the largest school in upper Westchester, with three locations, drawing students from Ossining, Croton, Pleasantville, Chappaqua, Peekskill and the Tarrytown area as well as the Yorktown, Lakeland, Putnam Valley, Somers and Cortlandt Manor vicinity.
