We got a wee off topic, as things do when you are enjoying company, and ended up discussing history, mechanics, maintenance, and intricate/nuanced details- all things I am interested in as it is part of my job- just in a different application. This was a fascinating conversation from a music perspective. I really feel he was born to teach and pass the gift onto others. He was even so kind to call back and connect me with someone who plays at a church in need of a piano! How perfect was that! He is a great conversationist, and a wealth of knowledge. I learned so much today. Thank you Keith! If you'd like to hear him play, he is at The Signature, Friday through Tuesday evening. But, Im sure if you ask, he would gladly show you what your future piano is capable of. No matter your price point, he can find the right fit for you. :)

I recently ordered a bass clarinet from Easy Music Center in Honolulu. After a few days without a…read moreshipping update, I emailed them on Monday morning to check on my order. Jake replied almost immediately and explained that a few employees had been sick, which caused a delay in processing. Shortly after, Hadji emailed me to let me know the instrument had been inspected and that they would expedite my order. Within a few hours, I received the shipping confirmation and tracking number for FedEx next day delivery which I really appreciated. Their customer service was excellent, and I really appreciated the quick responses and honest communication. My only suggestion is to send customers a quick email if an order is delayed. A simple update would go a long way and save customers from wondering about their order. So far, I'm very happy with the experience. I'll update my review once the bass clarinet arrives.

Yes, maybe it's because she's young she enjoys it, but I'm hoping her dedication and love for piano will continue in the long run. It's also a great place to bring our younger child, she has the waiting room and 2 private rooms that offer varieties of children's DVD' s to watch, which entertains him while we wait.

I have never written a negative review on Yelp, but I feel compelled to do so in this case. I asked…read moreMr. Wang to tune my piano -- he agreed to do it, but asked me to speak to his wife to schedule a time. She started asking me all the pertinent information (address, etc) and then asked what kind of piano I had...I told her the brand. I know my piano isn't a fancy, but it's very functional and it's what I have been blessed with to play. Upon hearing that the piano wasn't a Steinway (or something along those lines) she rudely refused to continue the booking because the piano brand wasn't good enough. All that said, I hear Mr. Wang is the best piano tuner on-island and I wish his wife hadn't blocked me from letting him tune my piano.

My character plays a 3 string cigar box guitar and I had very little experience. I reached to Brian because I was familiar with the multitude of bands I knew he plays with, unaware he was a teacher as well. In a single hr long session with an homemade instrument he was unfamiliar with he taught me how to consistently perform When the Saints Go Marching In, Yankee Doodle Dandy, the opening of Dueling Banjos, as well as help me compose an original melody to play along with one's of the songs in the play. Helping me with my successful 4 week run in the show. Would recommend him 10 out 10 times. 5 stars

There is a huge selection of offerings besides just piano. From our experience the learning and pace of the lessons adjust to the students. Children may or may not want to do competitions but it's up to them and how they feel which is great! This studio is managed by a group of people that love what they do and that is instilling an art upon a student. It's great to see the child develop from just tinkering a few keys to recitals. These performances give and teach children confidence to carry them as they grow. Rates do vary but the lessons are worth it The art of learning is priceless.
