I grew up singing most of my life, however I have done it less and less as an adult. Working with Rebecca has shown me that the music has not completely left. Rebecca shows excitement for her students and champions you as you go along with the lesson. The lessons are also very affordable as well. After attending in person sessions for over a month I was able to change my schedule slightly. Even during this time when my schedule was crazy she allowed me to do my lessons virtually. As an adult I cannot tell you how beneficial this is to have someone work with your crazy schedule. I was able to successfully change my lessons to biweekly in a virtual setting. I plan to do more at Music Makers as time and money allows, I really enjoy my time with Rebecca.

This school is where you get the initial training, but you can return again for further training for your career in the military music program. They offer many different level of training courses.

Graduates of the Naval School of Music go on to become musical ambassadors throughout the United States and abroad as members of U.S. Navy and Marine Corps Bands. The school originally opened in June, 1935 in Washington D.C. It moved to Little Creek Base in 1955. The building had major reconstruction done to it last year and is now a state of the art facility. There are 9 rehearsal areas linked by closed-circuit television. They accommodate ensembles of virtually any size.

Over 17,000 compositions are kept on file in the music library, and 1,000s of musical recordings, reference materials and publications are also available for student use and training. Additionally, a state of the art repair facility is maintained to service and repair the nearly 3,000 musical instruments presently carried on the Naval School of Music's inventory. All of the instructors at the school are professional musicians with the desire to help other military members through education and training. If you get the chance, stop by and see if you can get a tour and meet the amazing soldiers, sailors, and marines with the gift of music!

We figured this would mean more dedicated time and information. It was the exact opposite they tried to blow us off and I had to ask them twice to honor what was in the details of the day, which they still haven't done. We would've purchased a new amp and music if Charlie and the staff were more pleasant. Don't think we'll be using them for lessons or products after this interaction. Just go to guitar center!

The teachers are amazing and the performance opportunities keep the kids learning and engaged. His primary instrument is guitar but over the years that has expanded to include bass, drums, and keys.

I feel like I have gotten more than my moneys worth at every turn and I can not say enough good things about the owners, the teachers, and the support staff. If your kids have any interest in music at all you should check out School of Rock.

There were two areas to get drinks. One a full bar with three bartenders. They had draft beers and liquor. The front bar had one attendant and a different selection. Bathrooms were fine. I imagine if the venue was full lines for both could get long. The building an interior were great. I love the brick. There was a balcony section as well. The sound system seemed fine. The venue felt very intimate and I love that. I would definitely go back if I was in the area. I don't think they had food but go to Jack Browns for a burger or Benny's for pizza.

Our cultural life in the Hampton Roads community has been enriched by VSO for more than 80 years. I feel extremely blessed to personally know internationally renown Music Director JoAnn Falletta.

VSO annually performs in venues all over Hampton Roads, including genres such as Classical, Pops, and Jazz. In fact, just this week, VSO provided a small Jazz ensemble at the local Pagoda restaurant as one of their many Outreach concerts. VSO also provides orchestral support of the acclaimed Virginia Opera, Virginia Arts Festival, and Virginia Ballet. Last year, we enjoyed the Eroica Trio with VSO at the Sandler Center in Virginia Beach, another wonderful venue.
