She made us very comfortable and we absolutely adore her irresistibly cute little puppy. Our son learned to play simple songs and read the basic notes very quickly but even when he didn't feel like learning Amber found ways to make it fun for him and motivate him to keep trying. I can highly recommend Amber to anyone who wants to learn music!

From the owner: Hello! My name is Amber. I am a multifaceted musician and educator in the state of Florida. I have…read morebeen in the music business since 2010 and have been playing piano and flute for over 20 years. I also teach other instruments such as violin, cello, and saxophone. I am classically trained and have a Masters Degree in Music Education and Performance. I taught band, orchestra, and chorus in NYS so I can teach most all Band and Orchestra instruments including vocals! I have never met a person who regretted taking music lessons! I cater my lessons to the needs of my students to be sure that they are having fun and enjoying themselves as well as getting the education they deserve with lessons. My background allows me to teach many different learning styles of all ages to fulfill the needs of my students. Having fun is an essential part of the structure of my lessons! I am a strong believer in learning the fundamentals and traditional skills of music while also learning the skills of pop and modern-culture music. Please contact me with any questions or concerns you may have!

Impara SRQ worked with Bayfront Piano to move an upright for a student who was being gifted an…read moreinstrument. Owner Anthony Duffy thoughtfully met with the donor in advance to assess the piano the student would be receiving. He conducted a thorough inspection and provided helpful background information about the piano maker and model, giving us a better understanding of the instrument. Anthony and his assistant John were a pleasure to work with throughout the process. On the day of the move, they took great care to ensure the piano would fit safely through the kitchen and in the elevator, paying close attention to wall and cabinet corners. The piano was secured and transported in a Bayfront Piano trailer outfitted exclusively for instrument moving. This is our second move this season, and we look forward to continuing to work with Bayfront Piano to support our students. Submitted by Monica Sirocchi, Owner of Impara SRQ

As with Bayfront Piano!! We referred to Bayfront by our well regarded piano tuner. My wife's experience from setting up the appointment and scheduling in a tight moving window on short notice was pleasant and flawless. I must apologize I was under orders NOT to take pictures as my wife did not even want to be watching as her baby (claw & ball mahogany 2004 baby grand Pramberger I bought for her birthday - not saying which one :-) ) was being extracted from one home and delivered to the next about 2 miles away. (I had to take one just now as we are still un-packing and my wife is asleep (snicker) ) She was a wreck the whole time. I suspect the way I felt when my 7 ton sailboat was in the crane straps 30 feet in the air being splashed in the water each season - but I digress) Anthony and his crew skillfully and delicately/surgically maneuvered the 600+ pound instrument and transported it to our home. From tools, fixtures, transports/carts, handling mechanisms, trailer/hitch, vehicles - you can tell this is a well "tuned" mission with military precision, safety, and care. It was also the hottest day so far in 2022 with temps in the 90s and a heat index over 100. What a truly exceptional and wonderful experience.

At this point, I have paid a premium for the item. It is NOT rare nor is it high end...contrary. Upon getting it, I notice it's faulty. I contact them and they tell me I'd have paid more IF it was mint. But it's NOT mint...lol....so that's neither here nor there. Plus...I DID pay more than a fair price for this item. Then they tell me MOST old items like this have the same issue. Untrue. THEN they admit the issue descriptor was never used in their description. Or I'd have never bought. Now, they tell me their pics reveal the issue. You'd have to be an eagle to see this in the lousy pic they use. AND...I could have done better taking a more accurate pic. Finally, they passive aggressively offer to take it back...which they should...it was inaccurately advertised....but they want ME to eat shipping both ways. Not going to happen! I'll just leave scathing online reviews and keep the thing. Bad enough I have to drive it across town to post office.....I'm not paying for their blunders. On a poorly described item...that I paid top dollar for. Crooks.....never again! You've been warned, folks!
