We had a very poor experience at The Lesson Center. I enrolled my son in a first stages music…read moreclass. I paid the registration fee and first month tuition. The class was to be held on Saturday afternoons. I received a phone call the final Friday of the month letting me know the next day was my sons final class. They said they didn't make enough money from the class and were cancelling it with 24 hours notice. That is really crummy business practice considering if I were to request to pull my son from lessons, I would need to notify them by the 16th of the month or else I would be charged for an entire extra month tuition. Also, the last class he had there was a sub where they did absolutely nothing. This place doesn't care about their students of the development of their students. They are greedy and only care about money.

I feel I can no longer keep this to myself. This is a 5-star hidden gem music school. I am an older…read moreguitar student, and taught myself to play guitar on YT, before taking lessons at Marchwood Music little less than a year ago. I experienced accelerated growth through the program by Rick Snow. He truly cares about his students. The program structure and direct feedback helped me tremendously. I can't believe I played my first gig last weekend! The school for all ages and is a fun environment, very conducive for learning any type of music. I can wholeheartedly recommend it.

Guitar Rick! What can I say? My daughter has been taking weekly lessons with Rick for over two…read moreyears now and our experience has been exceptional. She started with zero experience on a guitar and is now occasionally playing live gigs with Rick in restaurants and the like. Rick and his process have been fabulous for our daughter's growth not only on the guitar but as a person. When we started she would have been mortified to get up in front of a restaurant full of people and do anything. Rick has helped her get over that anxiety and find her inner confidence. We would most definitely recommend Rick to anyone who is looking to start learning to play the guitar or anyone who is looking to take their skills to the next level. Rick is a truly genuine and caring person who is wonderful to work with.

I have never heard a bad word about this place and I've spoken to many students who have taken guitar and drum lessons there. I'm sure they also teach other instruments.

What a fantastic place for those who love to create music. If you want lessons or care for your…read moreinstrument, Fretz can help you out. The main draw for me, however, is the print music. I would often go to Fretz's as a younger Pooh and gaze at the rows upon rows of books and sheets, rifling through the sections to find what I wanted-- or maybe just to marvel at the impossibly complex advanced works. Fretz's is where I got my Schirmer Edition of Chopin's Nocturnes. After hearing Op9 No1, I resolved that I would learn to play it and that pale yellow book was the catalyst for my love of the art form. I still have that book and despite it's frail condition at this point, I consider it one of my most valuable possessions. Fretz's has more than classical music, though; in fact, probably less than half of their stock is classical. I remember getting copies of Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag, the Forrest Gump theme song, and Billy Joel's Greatest Hits at Fretz's. So whether you enjoy playing jazz, popular, contemporary, and whether you enjoy playing it on guitar, keyboard, or trumpet, chances are they'll be able to help you out. The parking situation can be rough, as Fretz's has a tiny lot that mates up in short order to a very busy route. But when you're dying to get your hands on that book of Beethoven's Sonatas, a little-- errr, a lot of traffic isn't going to deter you.
