I was pleasantly surprised by the high degree of excellence shown by this violin shop…read moreI came to their shop to purchase a set of violin strings for my 150 year-old instrument as they were looking over my violin in great detail they discovered there was a small crack in the center of the top piece which had gone unnoticed by many others including myself we discussed the process of how a repair might work and there was no getting around that the top would have to be removed I picked up the violin a week later and it sounds better than ever thank you thank you thank you to these guys

We dug deep, and asked professionals in the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. Finally the answer close to our house in Plano, the Vitale Violin Shop in Plano, Texas was recommended to us. The Symphony shared an article written in 2012 from the Dallas News Paper here: http://www.dallasnews.com/lifestyles/headlines/20120302-frisco-man-s-dream-of-making-violins-comes-true.ece Our search was over. The Violin Shop is absolutely amazing!!! The staff is courteous and very helpful. A master luthier that actually builds custom handmade violins and orchestra instruments! I didn't even know that type of skill set still existed out side of Italy, let alone this century in Plano, Texas! There is a 2000 sq ft. facility packed with custom handmade violins. There are many rooms and levels of instruments of all kinds. In addition we found a new teacher who plays in the Symphony from there! Thanks for reading! Go check them out...

How could he know this without having seen the violin? Because he also sells cellos, I'm sure he would rather I have bought the cello from him, but, to my mind, business is business. I found his response and pre-judgement highly unprofessional and disappointing.

You wouldn't know it from the outside which looks like similar to a house in the middle of a neighborhood. They have separate training rooms for the individual lessons and they even have a recording studio on site. Each month you have the opportunity to perform with some of the advanced students backing you in a concert at the local Rock 101 restaurant in Little Elm. My son is only 4 and his instructor Cody is great with him. He is starting out learning the drums but we eventually plan on him learning guitar as well. I can tell that Cody not only has solid music knowledge but also knows how to talk and relate with the youngest of pupils. We've attend a few lessons so far and are very pleased!

Facility - 4/5 Teacher - 4/5…read more Policy - 1/5 Bad experience we got - 0/5 So we've been a customer for more than 3 years, maybe more. My 2 girls take private piano lessons here. Bad experience My kid's teacher was off, and we were given a sub teacher. This guy called Juan, wasn't patient with my girl and made her cry. Then after she cried, he just sat back and played with his phone. I DID NOT pay $40/ session just to have my kid cry and the teacher playing with cellphone. The owner Melody Ouyang was on vacation. The business manager apologized, but I never heard from the owner about the horrible experience. All they did was, to schedule another makeup class for my kid. But it was a terrible experience for my kid. Policy They have this ridiculous withdrawal policy, which is they charge $50/child when we want to withdraw kids from the school during Sept-July. No other schools has withdrawal charge like this. So on June 2, 2018 I was surprised to get a bill that charged me $164/kid for June tuition and another $189/kid for September tuition. Well, they said there's a $25/kid enrollment fee for 2018-2019 year and that I must pay Sept tuition to hold my kids' spots for 2018-2019. I said I'd like to withdraw my kids due to the bad experience we got (see above) and the business mgr said no refund for the amount we've already paid (September tuition) and when I pressed to move the Sept tuition to cover July, so I don't have to pay for July tuition, she kept saying she needed to get Melody Ouyang's permission (which Ouyang was gone on vacation for a long time, more than 2-3 weeks). I can't pull my kids in June/July, because they require a 30-day notice prior to 1st of each month. Long story short, I don't want Ouyang to come back and deny my request to move September tuition to cover July. If she declines in late June, then we must cram 9 lessons into 3 weeks. In July, they only have 3 weeks of lessons (due to Independence Day week). So before Ouyang comes back from vacation, I requested to just pay July tuition and cram 9 lessons into 5 weeks time. July lessons: 3 lessons plus September lessons 4, plus make up classes. They acted like they were giving me a favor and didn't charge me $50 withdrawal fee/kid (which I was told, that $50 fee is if I pull my kids during the school year). But I finished 2017-2018 year, from September 2017 to July 2018, so actually, there was no reason to charge me $50 withdrawal fee/kid in the first place. I am just appalled and disappointed after having been a loyal customer more than 3 years, to be treated like this. Never heard back from owner (Ouyang) personally. I sent her an email about the horrible experience and never heard back from her. I put my kids into the school because she's a Juilliard grad, but my kids were never once under her tutelage - understand Ouyang is very busy. So the fact that Ouyang is a Juiliard grad, doesn't help my kids' piano skills at all.
