"Over the past three years, Bach to Rock has experienced incredible growth. The brand has grown from six corporate schools in the Washington, D.C., area to eight schools, including two franchised-owned locations in the New York City and Philadelphia markets. Additionally, we have four franchise locations in Sacramento, Calif., Long Island, N.Y., and Northern Virginia targeted to open in early 2014," said Brian Gross, president of Bach to Rock. "With music and arts programs continuing to be cut due to diminishing school budgets, Bach to Rock helps meet the increased need for high-quality music education. There is high demand for what Bach to Rock offers."

The Bethesda, Md.-based company reported a three-year revenue growth of 61 percent from 2009-2012 and added 41 new jobs. Bach to Rock was also ranked No. 66 of the Top 100 Education Companies listed on the 2013 Inc. 5000. For more information about Bach to Rock's ranking, visit http://www.inc.com/profile/bach-to-rock.
