Crescendo Studios now has plans to expand after opening a few months ago in Merrifield.
The education-oriented music studio is looking to use a currently empty space adjacent to the studio’s existing location (8101 Lee Hwy), according to Fairfax County documents.
With the extra square footage, Crescendo would offer both an expanded music education center with group and private lessons and on-site recording studios, according to the application.
The studio’s application in June to the county noted that they would be able to increase their clientele and take on around 90 students.
“The majority of the students are expected to be between the age of 7 and 17, though some adults may also enroll,” according to the application.
The music school’s proposed hours of operation would be noon- 9 p.m. Monday-Friday and 10 a.m.-5 p.m. on Saturday. The recording studio would be available 9 a.m.-9 p.m. on weekdays and 10 a.m.-8 p.m. on the weekend.
Crescendo told the county that the expansion would not affect parking in the area.
The Fairfax County Planning Commission is slated to hold a public hearing on the proposal in November.
