Guitar/music idiot here. I needed some strings as a birthday gift for an aficionado. Not only was I…read morehelped, I was welcomed and treated kindly and with respect. No snobbery here, just outstanding service and I can't wait to find an excuse to go back! My gift recipient was impressed by my selection and apparent expertise, so that's another star for Gravity Strings. Go there every chance you get!

Had a horrible experience with customer service in this store today. I drove to this store from…read moreAlabama with the intent of supporting a local business despite their prices being significantly more than most online retailers. I made an appointment to play test alto and tenor saxes, and after spending three hours in a practice room and deciding which horns I wanted to purchase, they told me that they had sold one of the horns I wanted to purchase online. Me, someone with an appointment, standing in the store, who had asked for the horn two hours prior, was not given priority over an online sale and I was told there was nothing to do. I decided to take my business to the significantly cheaper online retailers if this store is going to prioritize online shoppers over someone who drove nine hours and is standing in the store.

Dorothy provided a Paint and Sip evening for our non-profit organization, with about 10 attendees…read moreincluding adults and children. Dorothy was extremely organized with all the painting supplies and plan for the project. Over the course of a very fun couple hours, we were guided in creating unique and beautiful still life paintings while enjoying sipping wine, listening to music, and chatting. Dorothy is a fun personality for these events and has the creative expertise to help you create something you'd actually want to hang in your house! I would definitely work with Dorothy again for any creative event.

Stephanie Chang opened this new music school this year. It's in a wonderful location in downtown…read moreDanville, walking distance to all the quaint town has to offer (shops and restaurants). Stephanie Chang is a wonderful teacher; patient and knowledgeable. She has taught my 7 year old daughter and I the violin since last year at another music school in Danville. She also teaches piano. This new school is so fabulously decorated, too! I highly recommend Stephanie and Music Corner.

I've been working with Eva for 5 years, so she's been a staple in my life for a while now. She is…read moreso talented both vocally and as a teacher, and knows how to guide people through to progress. I had a voice lesson with another teacher once before, and I had a hard time getting over the vulnerability of being loud and filling a space with my voice. When I started working with Eva, she made me feel so comfortable and safe, and helped me get to a point where I could laugh and not cringe at myself. From there, progress came quick and with that, increased confidence. She helped create core memories for me through the coffee shop showcases that she set up for us. I've been on stages and competitive fields before but being up there with just me and my voice is a feat I'm most proud of. And in terms of my technical improvement, I felt my range open up and I feel as though I was able to sing more songs comfortably. Now, it's like I can actually color the songs/express myself in a rich, full way and not just worry about hitting the notes. Singing was always fun but now it's FUN. I love that my voice isn't something that I just have, I know how to evaluate it, color it, exercise it, and improve upon it. It's a skill that's a part of me now, that I can nurture and grow. My work schedule's getting in the way of me continuing this year but I hope as soon as I get some control over schedule, that I get to return. Anyone who's able to take my spot on her schedule is a lucky student :)

As a non traditional student that was just looking to learn a good baseline of technique, Eva…read morereally gives me a lot of wonderful tools to improve my craft, and honestly so much more! She has really guided me into finding my own voice as opposed to imitating anyone else's, which is honestly so valuable. She creates an environment that is free of judgment, where you are free to try new things, make mistakes and grow from them. I couldn't recommend her more !
