We started looking but of course it was not so easy because many places were either closed or scheduled by appointment only. However, we connected with Ron at Piano Exchange who was happy to meet us and schedule a private viewing when it was convenient for us. During our visit it was clear that Ron was very good about being Covid compliant and following all protocol. Ron met with us at the Dublin location. He was very welcoming and knowledgeable. He asked a few questions about what we were looking for and showed us around. He was patient, and I never felt pressured or hurried. There were several pianos I was interested in and one that I had fallen in love with, which is now in my home and is everything you would expect when you purchase a Yamaha. Shout out to our delivery guy who was super detail oriented and clearly had high standards. Thank you so much Ron for helping my husband surprise me!

My daughter started taking piano lessons with Stella (teacher & owner) about 6 months ago and she…read moreabsolutely loves it! She progressed quite well with her levels. Stella is an excellent teacher, takes the time to answer any questions I may have, always gives feedback on how my daughter is doing during her session. I'm glad I found a teacher as patient, friendly and knowledgable as her. As a parent, it's nice to find a studio and a teacher you feel comfortable going to and teaching your child about their passion for music. Do-Re-Mi Music academy is reliable, honest and operate with integrity. I recommend them to anyone who is looking for a piano studio either for themselves or for their children. This studio is clean, organized, they have comfortable seating area while you wait, they even offer some beverages such as water, juice, chocolate milk & some sweet treats. The studio is in a good location with ample of parking outside. We're happy to have found Do-Re-Mi music studio for my daughter to take up her piano lessons. They are simply the best! Highly recommend

Mine chose not to but that doesn't mean she stopped pushing them. She is very clear on her expectations on practice habits and time commitment to reach the levels the kids want to achieve. There are no shortcuts. The kids really enjoyed having her as their teacher. Since covid we chose to do online classes. And they still do now. I like the option of being able to continue online classes. Understandably this worked for us since the kids have been with her for years. So I like the flexibility. We have 2 recitals per year. And they are always fun to watch how much the kids have grown after 6 months .

The school offers a professional, well-rounded music education with a variety of courses. It also prepares students for graded music exams such as CM and ABRSM, helping them set clear goals and achieve recognized milestones. Seasonal recitals give students valuable opportunities to perform in front of an audience. Her teacher, Ms. Satoko, is truly exceptional, she is inspiring, loving, and supportive. She knows how to bring out the best in her students, making each lesson engaging while also building a strong musical foundation. My daughter always looks forward to her lessons and has grown so much in both skill and confidence under Ms. Satoko's guidance. If you're looking for a place where your child will not only learn music but also be inspired and supported every step of the way, I highly recommend Harmony Music School.

During a recent restaurant gig, her speakers blew out suddenly and unexpectedly. She was embarrassed and devastated. The next day, we phoned the speaker manufacturer and they told us to go to Guitar Center to have them replaced at no cost, as they were still within the warranty period. We figured there was no way it could be that simple, but it was. When we got to Guitar Center, Sidney (the manager) swapped out the old speakers for brand new ones, no questions asked. I can't tell you how reassuring this was for me and my daughter. We are so glad we purchased her equipment at Guitar Center. This store gets an A+ in my book. Thank you, Guitar Center.

No call and no one answered the phone so I went in Sunday afternoon to get it. It was sitting in a store room untouched. The front desk said the repair guy is not in again until Tuesday but promised me a call with an update. Again NO CALL and no answer when trying to avoid a 20 min drive to the store just to check in. Why can't anyone answer the phone?! Day 5 of them having the guitar, Drove in again Tuesday night to check on the guitar. Jack was still loose, worse than before and totally unplayable now and no evidence of it getting restrung. Took my guitar and left. What a joke, what do you pay your repair guy to actually do? Guitar is now in worse shape than when I took it in since he loosened the jack even more to inspect it. Thanks for damaging my guitar. I would call and report this to a manager but again, no one answers the phone. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!

We feel incredibly fortunate to have Ms. Liya Ledyaeva as our daughters' piano teacher. As a…read moreparent, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing your children grow under the guidance of a teacher who truly understands, encourages, and believes in them. Ms. Liya is an exceptional teacher and an extraordinary pianist herself. Her knowledge of classical music, attention to detail, and ability to bring out musical expression in her students is remarkable. But what makes her truly special is the way she combines high standards with kindness, patience, and warmth. She knows when to challenge her students, when to encourage them, and how to inspire them to reach a level they may not have realized they were capable of. Under Ms. Liya's mentorship, we have watched our daughters grow tremendously--not only as a pianists, but also in their confidence, musical maturity, and love for music. We love the joy and confidence with which they approach the piano. Both my daughters absolutely adore Ms. Liya, and that relationship between a student and teacher is something very special, and as parents, we couldn't ask for more. We are also very grateful to Pleasanton Academy of Music for creating an environment where young musicians are encouraged and challenged positively. Ms. Liya is truly one of those rare teachers who can make a lasting difference in a child's life. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

The review is for the Academy. Not the teacher…read more Pro: Many teachers to choose from. The director actually recommends the right teacher to our kid that we appreciate. Cons: It bugs me when the schools are cutting corners. It's shocking that they use a demolished site as a recital spot. it's financial savvy of them to have their own recital venue that increase their margin. BUT if the independent piano teacher or tiny schools can pull out a decent recital experiences for students, How can this massive school use a pre-demolished site for recital. It will not get better even if they remodeled as it's just a sad space among all their future classrooms.
