I recently purchased an old piano. I invited Mr. Tom Lam to tune the piano and also to see if any…read moreadditional work needed to be done. He tuned one note and fixed one of the pedals and charged us $265 for the work. I wasn't home at the time at the time when he was over and the work was done while my my inlaws were at my home. Once I had come home I noticed that a few notes were still out of tune and also a few notes didn't ring out properly. He tried to tell me that the piano is a cheap quality and that it's not worth investing money to try to fix the mechanism to help the notes ring out. He even told me that he will find someone to take the piano but I have to pay for shipping. He was very condescending, instead of answering my questions as to what work needed to be done, he kept insisting that no work is worth it. My mother has a piano that she purchased in the same manner 30 years ago and to this day she still uses it. It of course could use a tune up but after 30 years it still works well. The piano that I purchased has the same potential, but Mr. Tom Lam just doesnt have the skill and workmanship to to bring it to its potential, despite his website clearly stating that he works to repair all types of pianos, young and old. Very disappointed with his work and would not recommend him to anyone.

It's been a while since I've written a review and I feel compelled to do so for Nikokids…read more My youngest son has been attending Nikolai's class since 5 months old! He is turning 4 in a couple of months and we absolutely adore Nikolai. My son loves his class, naturally gravitates toward him even at a young age. His classes are interactive to both children and caregivers. His philosophy on including adults to join in the singing/dancing with the children during class time is on point with how I feel. The songs/activities are very age and developmentally appropriate to help with speech. It's been a tough year and a half for everyone and Nikolai did everything he could (on line classes, and outdoors classes) to keep things going. While it's not always easy, he always give out a positive vibe in his emails and through his interactions with the children. We wish him the very best! *heart

Susan and Anthony have built a wonderful business in Treblemakers. As a professional musician and…read morecomposer, I have a fairly high standard and high expectations for the musical training of my daughter. Treblemakers has exceeded those expectations. Susan not only teaches singing; she teaches *music*. Her lessons focus on the fundamentals of musicianship while maintaining my daughter's interest with fun exercises and great song choices. All the while, Anthony runs the office with aplomb, always communicating with the parents and keeping on top of the scheduling. We're extremely pleased to have found this wonderful company. -Frank P via Liz P

Our kids have been taking piano lessons with Suzan at Treblemakers for a few years. Suzan is the…read moremost amazing piano teacher, musician, and mentor. My kids love her! She creates special programs to suit the interests of the student but insists upon building core competencies such as reading music, scales, singing/comping, etc. Our friends' kids have Alexandra and love her as well. The students in the program are comfortable playing jazz, classical, pop, rock, etc. and aren't stuck in one genre. Treblemakers tailors the program to your kid's interests so you can request any song and they will work out appropriate arrangements. But don't worry - the teachers at Treblemakers all have been trained at the top music schools and have the chops to teach very difficult classical and jazz pieces as well. Most programs will not have the breadth that Treblemakers provides. (Kids can also learn a multiple instruments as well.) Suzan wrote her own method books that have great catchy tunes and they layer and layer until kids gain all the core skills including scales, chords, arpeggios, major/minor, etc. Then all of sudden the kids are really ready to play anything... Treblemakers is a family business with scheduling run by Anthony who also inspires the children, has a deep interest in the education of all students, and always makes sure the kids and parents are happy and reaching goals. We highly recommend Treblemakers and know that our kids will have the love of music and all the skills needed to enjoy playing music for the rest of their lives.

He's not Sam Ash or Guitar Center - and getting personalized work, advice, and tips from someone who deeply loves music feels so special. His 'shop' or workspace is super special too. It is the best of Brooklyn. I'd definitely recommend taking your instruments to him. He breathed new life into a clarinet and flute that I was given, advising me in a way that showed he's less about making a quick buck and instead offering guidance and care for what both I, and the instruments, needed. Go to Ruben. His love for instruments is unmatched, and you will know you've worked with an actual small business owner who cares.

I needed cleaning and valve work on them and didn't feel comfortable trusting anybody near where I live. I was in NY and met Ruben Gutierrez at a jazz club and since I enjoyed his music, I asked him where he had his horns cleaned and repaired.

Although I was hesitant about sending my horns across country, but ultimately he did a fine job on them at a fair price, and I am playing again!
