We came in looking for a case, but Rodrigo recommended the South store that had a better selection of smaller acoustics and we bought one the next day. Good call, Rodrigo! She is having a much easier time playing now.

Then, had…read moreanother two lessons where the majority of the half hour was eaten up by tuning the violin (although my daughter didn't take the violin out of the case in between lessons). We registered on the 12th, and on the 30th of the same month, I let them know I wanted to cancel. They are now charging me for another month of lessons, despite my cancellation request. Beware that if you sign up mid-month, you'll be on the hook for another 4 lessons, despite no services rendered.

Here's what I have to say about the experience I've had: I have David Price as my teacher, and I am utterly grateful for his instruction. He is fantastic--always involved in every step of the lesson, playing along with me, giving me directions as well as examples of what to do, and he's just a down-to-earth guy who's friendly and kind. The owner, Kath, is sweet as can be, and every single person I've met from that school has been helpful, friendly and polite. The school is clean; the environment is welcoming; the instruction from my teacher is second to none, and I've had four teachers, counting him. I am very happy with everything I've experienced so far. I am excited to see how I grow as a violinist over the coming months and years.

Both are gifted musicians and talented teachers. Having two locations also makes it convenient for the summer camps that are offered and also if we need to reschedule and get a makeup lesson at the other location. There are also several recitals throughout the year so my son has really learned the performance aspect of being a musician. My son has ADHD and his teachers are able to engage him throughout the lesson. As someone who is experienced in both adolescent development and pedagogy, Orpheus is, in my opinion, the best music school in central Texas.

If he doesn't turn out to be some type of someone in the music industry when he's older, lawd help me..he's gonna be disowned! However, I have been communicating with this business via text for about a month now to get a doublebass ready for Thing One. In the communications, we have discussed the required height, type of bow, and type of use this instrument would get to determine which base would be the right fit. When we arrived to pick up the bass, we were greeted warmly and given a quick lesson on the proper care of the instrument. This process took no longer than 30 minutes from arrival to signing the paperwork. I am looking forward to hearing the tones of this beautiful instrument in my home.

I had no idea what to expect since I stopped playing a long time ago, but Russell and Derek were so helpful! I was completely out of my element, but they explained everything patiently and I felt so welcomed and at ease after talking to them. When I said that a friend was going to use the violin to help her little sister practice, Russell mentioned that they have bright colors for bow hair! I chose purple hair and was so excited even though I'm not even the one playing the violin. I wish it had been an option back when I played!

Something that is crucial in a GREAT teacher versus a good teacher. Derek is thorough and very easy to work with. So is the whole team. Traditional business. Call them up and schedule some lessons directly with your instructor. No middle man, no over board website to check payments and create a "social" account with all your information. I personally appreciate how easy and smooth it is to work with this company! Mr. Derek gives lessons to 3 of the 5 members of my band, Lime Creek, out of Northwest Arkansas. Thank you Derek and team!

I am happy to say that Austin School of Music has never made me feel that way. The front desk staff was so encouraging and supportive and Josh Perdue has been a phenomenal instructor.

I leave my weekly lessons feeling encouraged and so happy that I made the choice to start playing.

It was reminiscent of Abby on Dance Moms. 10 minutes in, Tabitha complains that she isn't ready because "she's not following my directions all the way through". If you advertise that you work with children as young as 3 then have the experience, knowledge, and self esteem to understand that children learn through play and repetition. Also, since you are being paid for the lesson, allow a child to adjust to the new environment before formulating an opinion. After all, it's not like this is the Juilliard School of Music.

I received a response from the store manager; Mr. Don Denham (of the band American Revival)! Don and I exchanged a few communications regrading the type of lessons that I required for my son. When my son and I came to the lesson today, we were greeted by Don and advised on guitars and the type of lessons that are provided at the establishment. My son not only got a music lesson with his new guitar instructor Ethan, but I also bought my son a new guitar. I appreciate the professionalism, knowledge of music theory, safety precautions taken by the staff during the pandemic AND that I got to meet the guy (Don) in the band all in one visit. Great experience all the way around.

He absolutely loves it and I like that the lessons include music theory and not just how to make a song come out of you. They have different recital options so if a kid wants to perform but maybe not in front of a large crowd, there are smaller opportunities and I like that even brand new students participate. They have a lot of teachers which makes for a lot of scheduling options, which is a bonus.
