I have seen dramatic improvement in my singing abilities thanks to the excellent instruction I have received. They have established a wonderful community of performers and teachers, which really comes through at the monthly open mic sessions they hold. These sessions give students the opportunity to practice their craft in front of a supportive crowd. The benefit of singing with a live backing band rather than just a canned recording cannot be overstated and is a huge benefit when you are trying to learn how to perform on stage. Highly, highly recommended!

My kids enjoyed their time at Tom Kopyto Music School for almost two years, and we appreciated the…read moreteachers they worked with. They always looked forward to lessons. But I want to share our experience so other parents know what to expect. After learning that our son had not been taught from his textbook for seven weeks, we contacted the school to ask about it. Instead of addressing the concern, the teacher and owners reacted emotionally and immediately stopped teaching our son. No discussion, no attempt to resolve the issue. Despite the little kids' desire to learn. Parents should also be aware that the school charges $26 per parent to attend the recital, which adds to the feeling that the school prioritizes fees over communication and partnership with families. We valued the early music education our kids received, but the way our concern was handled was disappointing and not what we expected after being loyal customers. Owners are cocky and not friendly to parents at all. We can find better music school for sure.

I'm not sure what the 1 star review was about.

I have since bought a bass guitar and I am now taking bass guitar lessons from him. I taught myself at a young age to play an acoustic guitar and did not have any form or rhythm until I took guitar lessons from Paul. I am so inspired! I really wanted to get the rhythm down so I took drum lessons from one of the teachers at Paul's Music School, Tido Holtkamp. Tido taught me to to read music and keep a beat and now my singing improved in the church choir! Now I am plucking around on a keyboard and I am going to have to take a few piano lessons from Gale Gardiner. So

A musical education is hard to come by these days. Gone are the times when the little old lady down…read morethe road gave piano lessons to neighborhood kids, either because fewer and fewer kids can be pulled from their video games or little old ladies have no interest in trying to teach music to children who would rather pretend to play music. And, as local school districts search for more ways to cut their budgets, music programs are often targeted resulting in water-downed programs that at best can only whet the appetites of future musicians. It's a wonder that music hasn't become a lost art. Thankfully, there are still places like Suffield Music to pick up the baton thrown away by public education and little old ladies down the road. Suffield Music offers a wide variety of incredibly affordable personal music lessons ranging from guitar to piano to violin to everything. I really can't think of an instrument I haven't seen taught there. The owner Josh is so plugged into the local music scene that if a student was interested in learning a unique instrument like the sitar, he could find a teacher. When my son's proficiency at the guitar exceeded my elementary knowledge of a dozen or so chords, I called Suffield Music and they paired him with an instructor that matched his musical interests. The instructor, who himself was not only a Berklee College of Music grad but a veteran of many bands, plugged into my son's musical interests and taught him how to connect his passions to his instrument, and the results were nothing short of inspiring. When my daughter, whose musical tastes centered around the work of a country-turned-pop artist, she was paired with a different instructor who taught her how to hold an audience with just her guitar and her voice. About a year later, she got up on stage in front of the entire middle school a performed a solo acoustic version of Niall Horan's "This Town" to, no exaggeration, thunderous applause. So, it goes without saying, I got my money's worth for my kids' music lessons. When my wife bought me a very expensive Fender Telecaster for my birthday, I resolved to raise my grunge-era guitar skills to a new level. And, I knew where to go. I was paired with an instructor who was nothing short of a musical savant. He took me, upon request, from the 12-bar blues to songs with wild alternative tunings. He taught me how to build and release audience tension along with some basic tips about handling a very cool instrument. I've played solo gigs numerous times, including twice at my town's annual fair, and reached a level where both my instructor and the owner said I should consider playing professionally at local bars and microbreweries. I guess I graduated. Look, music is not for everyone. It takes work, patience and perseverance. It is not for the dreamer who doesn't want to put in the effort. From a musical education, you get what you put into it. If your child or you, for that matter, truly want to know how to play an instrument at the highest of levels, give Suffield Music a shot. The experience, if you let it, will be truly transformative.

Francesco was so lovely to meet and work with. My son, who was nine at the time, had just started…read moreplaying piano. We wanted to purchase a good instrument, but not break the bank. Francesco took a lot of time (over several visits) to educate us about the brands he carried in the store, what makes a high quality instrument, what to look for. He never pressured us or steered us towards a higher priced/higher quality instrument and he agreed with us that we should start slowly and then, if we needed to, trade up for a higher quality piano later. In fact, he made the decision very easy for us. We purchased a good middle-level piano, and when my son needs more instrument, Francesco will buy back our current piano for what we paid for it, and help us trade up for a higher quality instrument. How could we go wrong?! Also, two free tunings with the new piano, which is a great deal. He came and delivered it to us, advised us on the care of the instrument, and has always been very available to us. He wants to be sure you are really happy with your purchase. He really knows his stuff and is a pleasure to work with. Please give this business a call if you are in the market for a piano, or are in need of a tuning. Our piano teacher has two gorgeous grand pianos in her home and she said she ONLY trusts Francesco to tune them. She said his tunings are extremely reasonably priced and he does an EXCELLENT job.
