We started off on chords, and easy to learn songs, eventually we moved onto more complicated pieces. I have also seen Matt in concert, his band rocks!

They're passionately dedicated to teaching music and at times go far with teaching techniques beyond the book. You can be an absolute beginner wondering where to start, and here's where their music material really shines! They've got it all covered - be it pop, rock, jazz... from beginner to becoming a pro! All you have to do is practice. Beyond teaching, they inspire you to explore your own style in songwriting and playing instruments. They also host seasonal recitals. My piano teacher Hye Seon has years of experience orchestrating off-broadway Jazz musicals in New York. She's very involved with her teaching - helps you appreciate music theory, has taught great playing techniques to flow effortlessly on the piano. I thoroughly enjoy taking music lessons with her. Delighted to have found this school and so would you be!

This studio was a little difficult to find because it's located in a non descript building. There's a separate elevator on the side. The studio is obviously new. There are numerous rooms to practice and the pianos are in good shape. It was so easy to book the studios in advance and the prices were reasonable at $40/hour. There were foldable chairs for guests to sit and listen while someone practices. The staff are so friendly and very helpful! Will definitely return and recommend to others!

My child was intimidated right before an important performance. The room was not available until after 3:03, and staff did not effectively resolve the situation. This kind of behavior and lack of management oversight is unacceptable.

Every year in the summer they have a recital at a public venue where each of the students if they chose to, can perform. My daughter loves her teacher, Joan, who also happens to be one of the owners. She sped through the early teaching book and now she pretty much learns anything she wants under Joan's guidance. It's a positive encouraging atmosphere which has given my daughter passion for playing. We never have to remind her to practice, in fact she's in the music room on the piano numerous times a day, she has a real love for the instrument which they've carefully nurtured. As well as lessons they have a wide range of musical literature, instruments, and services. I would highly recommend them for not just piano but for guitar, woodwind, strings, percussion and also voice based on the performances we see each year.

I arranged rental time at Michiko in late December 2024, for a studio upright piano that turned out…read morewas not in good condition. I believe this was a Kawai. Despite claims the staff made about technicians routinely servicing their pianos, this instrument was not in tune and had not been reguated so the action had what piano technicians call "lost motion," which means there is space between the end of keys and the moving parts of the action. This creates a sloppy feeling in the keys, and thus a sub-standard playing experience. Lost motion is easily corrected and this lasts for a long time so either the cause is poor technician skill or the Michiko does not pay enough to maintain this instrument. Sound from other nearby rehearsal studios was a distraction.

I am going to keep this one short and sweet since I was only visiting the establishment to enjoy a…read moreperformance by some Japanese musicians I had met who were part of a larger collective set this evening. The collective had arranged for one of the larger rooms so they could have some audience members, the full company and be able to stream it online as it happened. Spatially speaking they had a reasonable stage that held everyone involved. A full four piece band, some singers and some traditional Japanese instrument players and a grand piano. To the other side of the room was the soundboard and a setup of chairs. They had about 20 or so chairs to sit in and the audience would be a mix of invited friends, the media and the other members of the collective. Overall a nice group. The sound in this room was wonderful and you heard everything nice and clear and it was quite enjoyable. The space itself was clean and had a number of bathrooms and a WiFi signal to login to. I asked the friendly staffer what else the venue had and they said there were numerous smaller rooms like phone booths almost that people use to practice singing only or their voiceover and podcast work. Good idea. While I don't know if I will ever be there again I enjoyed my time here and thing the talented people who are reading this Yelp should look into the place in case it serves their needs.

I can't imagine a better experience than buying a piano from Isaac at Prosper Pianos. I reached out…read moreon a whim after seeing a post about the business. Though we've wanted a piano for years, we had looked only casually before being struck by Isaac's philosophy: taking pianos and touching them up or even restoring them to sell to people across a wide range of budgets and skill levels. When I reached out, Isaac responded promptly, and we had a long conversation assessing what we were looking for in a piano. When we went to his shop, he explained the origin of the pianos he had and what made each different. He graciously let us try everything from a Baldwin spinet to a beautiful late-1800s Steinway (which he knew was NOT in our price range!). We ultimately settled on a warm Charles Walter upright, made by a smaller American company we hadn't been familiar with but that - - besides making great pianos - - has business values we appreciate as a bonus. The piano movers Isaac works with are excellent: they arrived promptly and carefully navigated the piano up several steps through a narrow entrance, in and out within fifteen minutes. Now we're beyond excited to have this beautiful piano sitting in our living room and highly recommend Isaac and Prosper Pianos.

He has a great selection of pianos in his store and the price is very reasonable compared to other big piano stores in the area. Dennis said I can even use the price i paid for my Yamaha to upgrade to a Steinway as a credit within 10 years! After sale service is great too. I got my C1 6 months ago and Dennis is the one who maintains and tunes it. I will highly recommend Pianotek to anyone who is in the market of buying a quality piano.

My pianos have never sounded better. He gave me a welcomed and thorougd history of both of my Steinways. Having gone through multiple tuners, it is of no doubt that he is the one. His wisdom of the mechanics and the intricacies of the instrument is evident. I have had the same tuner for several generations and he is the first one that has respected the instrument and the work that has been done. Every tuner has their own phrases that they test during tuning. Dennis is a genius. Plain and simple. His tests are the equivalent of a Carnegie Hall performance. An absolute brilliant mind. Most tuners are a chore to get through and with him, it is a performance. He taught me many things I would have never known. He is as good as it gets. There aren't enough food words. An incredibly kind and knowledgeable gentleman and a master in his craft I reinforce the other voices on Yelp and would wholeheartedly recommend Pianotek and their services. It doesn't get any better. .
