MSM ACADEMY

Mario Anthony Dunn

As the proprietor, founder, and instructor of Marcel Studios and Music Academy, I embarked on this journey from the humble beginnings of my bedroom in 2011. Today, what started as a personal passion has flourished into three thriving branches across Bangalore, serving hundreds of students each year. Our academy offers specialised training in Piano, Guitar, Violin, Ukulele, Flute, Music Theory, Western Vocals, and Speech & Drama.

We are affiliated with prestigious international institutions such as Trinity College of Music, London College of Music, ABRSM, and offer recognised certifications through our own MSM Academy as well. As someone with a deep passion for music and education, I’ve built a diverse skill set, from being a high school music teacher to a trained sound engineer. My journey as a musician has been one of growth, combining my BA in Music with hands-on experience in both teaching and studio work.

At Marcel Studios, we believe in creating a space where creativity and talent meet, fostering a supportive community of aspiring musicians. Our commitment to quality, discipline, and passion has been the cornerstone of our success, and I look forward to continuing this musical adventure.

My journey in music began at Marcel Studios and Music Academy, where I deeply immersed myself in the art of sound. Guided by talented instructors, I honed my skills across various musical styles, cultivating a profound appreciation for performance. The nurturing environment of the academy allowed me to explore my creativity and build confidence in my abilities as a pianist and singer, while also mastering multiple instruments.

As I progressed in my own musical journey, I discovered a passion for teaching and sharing my knowledge with others. This enthusiasm led me to my role as a music teacher at Joseph’s School, where I strive to inspire my students by fostering their musical talents and nurturing a lifelong love for music. My experiences at MSM Academy have equipped me with the tools and insights necessary to guide my students on their own unique paths, empowering them to express themselves and develop their skills.

I am dedicated to creating a vibrant musical community where students can thrive and experience the transformative power of music.
