I really have to thank Mr. Matt and the rest of the incredible staff. It makes me want to continue my music journey and come back very often. A big plus is their location now.

She went out of her way to get me an appointment the very same day. The teacher, who matters most (the point of going was to get music lessons, right?), was incredible. He's brilliant. Studied piano since childhood in Venezuela and then lived in Russia for 7 years. He got my son SO HOOKED on piano that I hardly have to ask him to go practice. He loves to do it and I can hardly get him away from the piano. I highly recommend this place. They are really about their craft which is music, not pleasing extra picky sticklers who haggle and whine.
