Alexis helped me today and even took the time to show me how to get points from my purchase. I think the thing they have going for them is that the staff are music nerds (as they should be) and they are genuinely pleased to discuss anything music related. It shows in the interactions that I've had with them. As far as I can tell, their prices are similar (and sometimes identical) to online stores like Sweetwater and Guitar Center.

I also lost the power cord to the keyboard and Jared took lots of time to try to find a similar one. He ended up not being able to find one just because the brand of my keyboard isn't well known.

I was taking lessons at Allegro before it even existed. I've known Jodi since I was in middle…read moreschool, when she first started helping me so I could get over my performance fears in Solo and Ensemble and to be skilled enough for Hilliard Darby's choral program. She cares about teaching and helping you grow. She understands everyone's skills and goals are different. You won't have the exact same plan as the person in the next room, but it means you're growing the way you should in order to succeed. After I was "done" with voice lessons (when I left for college), I took piano lessons. They also offer guitar, small group ensembles and recitals! I've worked with many staff members when I needed to switch my day/time and they are all incredible people. Jodi is very specific when hiring and won't settle for someone who isn't the right fit for the students. I would say voice lessons worked well for me. I sang at Carnegie Hall in 2018. Years of practice and building my skills led me to that stage. Thanks, Jodi!

I like the way how they bill tuitions too. You will be only charged for the lessons you go to. We'd been to other schools before. Some of schools will still charge the same tuition for the long holidays when you miss 1 or 2 lessons but here it never happens. If your lessons fall on Mondays and you miss it for holiday shutdown, you won't be charged for that.

Columbus is fortunate to be able to claim a resource such as this one.
