Susan Leach of Premier Music Academy in Round Rock, TX must be the most professional and quality…read moreoriented private music academy instructor have ever worked with in my 35+ years of being a fellow musician. Susan Leach has been providing flute lessons to my son over the past 2 years with the first year being virtual due to the pandemic. My son as a beginning flutist entered into his second year of middle school already propelled to the highest of 3 bands at school. Furthermore, he earned top tier position in performance by winning district level and competed at regionals within his first 3 months of playing flute with other musicians in a live non-virtual setting. Susan's capabilities as an outstanding musician are well established given her tenure as a professional flutist in orchestra of which she performs, but not just anyone can also take that level of talent and teach another person. She is flexible on schedule and always has been accommodating. Premier Music Academy as a business is fantastic at communication and every one of my engagements involved working directly for the owner and manager of the school. All that being said, Premier Music Academy is my ONLY recommended school for private instruction in the area and they offer a wide spectrum of top tier instructors across an array of wind, brass, string (including all styles of guitar), and percussion instrumentation (yes including Piano and Keyboard) along with vocal instruction as well.

Both are gifted musicians and talented teachers. Having two locations also makes it convenient for the summer camps that are offered and also if we need to reschedule and get a makeup lesson at the other location. There are also several recitals throughout the year so my son has really learned the performance aspect of being a musician. My son has ADHD and his teachers are able to engage him throughout the lesson. As someone who is experienced in both adolescent development and pedagogy, Orpheus is, in my opinion, the best music school in central Texas.

My daughter has been taking piano and voice lessons here for over a year, and we're both very…read morepleased with the results. All of the teachers we've worked with have been wonderful (we've had several different teachers for each subject, since we needed to move days a couple of times). Currently we have Steve for voice and Danielle for piano, and we adore them both. Steve makes my daughter feel super comfortable (which is vital with singing, where you really have to put yourself out there. It can be so hard to get kids over that performance anxiety -- is there anything worse than embarrassment to an 11-year old?? -- but Steve's sense of humor works wonders with the kids.) And Danielle is absolutely lovely and made my daughter feel really good about her progress. The other person we interact with a lot is Brenda, who handles scheduling, appointments, payments, calls, recitals ... basically she runs the place. Not only is Brenda super organized and helpful, but she's also the nicest person you'll probably ever come across. We feel really lucky to have this school right here in Pflugerville. I hope they never move!

We were introduced to owner Todd Barth, and we have been happy students for years. Todd is patient, kind, and really tailors his teachings to the music his students already love. That makes learning fun, and has proven to be a sound strategy. He's not a music teacher, he's a true enthusiast with a professional history under his belt. His staff is wonderful, the location is convenient, and my daughter's music just keeps growing and growing! Can't say enough about Pfluger Rock. I'm so glad we found them!!

As a musician myself, it was very important to me that my son's first music teacher (and a coach) knew how to engage kids, meet him where he was, and bring out the best in him (easier said than done). Fortunately, everyone we've met at Dolce has been absolutely fantastic. Our family truly feels blessed to have found this place. A special thanks to Brenda and Jack. Thank to you, we're watched our son fall more in love with music.

She says without a doubt that Stephen at Dolce is her favorite instructor of all those she has had. She enjoys her lessons and he is really good at communicating with her. The only thing I would like to see as an improvement is a good way to motivate her to practice. She has joined the Youth Chamber Orchestra at Dolce and that has helped a lot because there are other kids her age that she plays with and she doesn't want to be embarrassed by not knowing her part. Also, having performances to prepare for helps, but I wish they made a bigger deal about the performances approaching and perhaps had some system of accountability for the kids to work for, even if it was just a little prize. P.S. I save 5 star reviews for very few places, so 4 stars from me is pretty dang awesome!!

I have had the pleasure of learning piano under Neli and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Her…read moretalent is evident from the very first lesson, with a deep understanding of music and a remarkable ability to convey complex concepts in an accessible way. What truly sets Neli apart, though, is her patience and passion for teaching. She creates a warm, encouraging environment that makes each lesson something to look forward to. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, Neli has the expertise and dedication to help you achieve your musical goals. BTW all of my family members have been her student at some point of time. So that speaks volumes about how great she is!

Neli is a truly wonderful teacher that I cannot recommend highly enough! My two kids have taken…read moreyears of classes with her and so have I, starting as a total adult beginner. She is able to adjust her teaching style based on the student's maturity level and interests. Neli is constantly pushing you to improve but in a patient and nurturing way. What impresses me every time is comparing where I start with a piece of music and where I end up. The understanding of the piece, the subtle refinement, and the growth that I experience with every piece of music is truly inspiring. She encourages her students to record themselves playing the same piece at different times to witness that growth, and that is amazing to see. Students can participate in two recitals a year and those recitals are so, so amazing to watch and speak to her talent to develop her students' talents. Many of her students go on to compete at various levels and regularly earn highest awards. Some have even gone to college to major in music because of the love and understanding of music she helped develop. I can't recommend Neli highly enough for young kids, teens and adults!
