“We have had a great time at Green Tambourine- my then 5 year old started by attending a weekend open house, followed by a summer camp and now regular violin lessons. Ms Ann is an amazing teacher who not only teaches the kids music, but is also able to fill them with the joy that comes from learning music; the whole environment at GT is just so wonderful. They are very flexible and offer make up classes. Last year, they agreed to summer classes just so that we keep up the skills. We absolutely love Green Tambourine and encourage others to explore!“
“Miss Alexis’s class is something my son looks forward to every week! She always brings the energy and includes everyone in the fun! Highly recommend you sign up for classes with her!“
“Kennedy is awesome! My son never complains about piano lessons with him, and I often hear them laughing. Kennedy also encourages Ben to be creative, and he makes it a point to work on pieces of music that Ben likes. He's also very flexible with scheduling. New Groove is lucky to have him!“
“I was told not to bring my violin there for repairs again. This was repeated several times. It was discriminating despite paying more than the initial amount quoted. I never knew their services were for a specific set of people. So sad ?“
“Chris is the most fun piano teacher! Our daughter (6 years-old) has learned so much from him — all with a big smile on her face. If you are looking for a piano teacher who is not only very talented and well-trained, but also fun — Chris is for you!“
“If you are looking for drum lessons, look no further. Rob is an excellent teacher that will help you master the fundamentals and work with you to reach your goals for drumming. Highly recommend!“
“Rob and his team of instructors are talented and inspiring teachers. All three if my children and my wife have or are taking lessons and each benefited greatly from HSM. I highly recommend HSM. You will be impressed and glad you chose them.“
“They teach kids how to play real music -- drums Guitar bass keyboard in one class lesson the best I ever seen“
“I had a wonderful experience at Fred Oster Fine Violins yesterday. Fred was kind enough to show me about 12 very nice Italian violins. Oster has an excellent collection of fine violins. Fred’s knowledge of these instruments is truly impressive. He made some wonderful suggestions to me. I especially appreciated his direct honesty in regards to the condition and true origin of each violin. We narrowed our search down to a fabulous Mezzadri and beautiful Scarampella violin. I do not live on the east coast but Oster Violins will be a frequent stop for me in the future when I am out this way. Catherine Jacobs was very helpful with arranging all the details of my visit and Samantha was nice enough to play several of the violins from a distance to get a better feel for projection. Highly recommend Fred if you are looking to buy a nice violin. Fred is indeed an expert on Italian violins. Thank you AndrewJust an update: I did choose the Alessandro Mezzadri violin. Love it. Thanks Fred and Catherine for all your help.“
“Both Mr. and Mrs. Kalendar have been amazing teachers to me. Their enthusiasm and constant encouragement have kept me going for more lessons, each of which has given me such valuable information. The two of them have in-depth and complementary knowledge on technique and composition across a myriad of genres. Unlike most musicians I've met in the US, they were not originally from this country, and bring knowledge of musical cultures from across the globe, which they are helping me learn and incorporate into my pieces. While Mr. Kalendar is a renowned jazz musician in Philadelphia, his interests and skills go far beyond that single umbrella-term. They are extremely flexible with their lessons, and dedicate a lot of time to each individual, catering lesson plans based on the individual. Regardless of what level you are at, as a musician, you will never leave their home feeling discontent. It is almost akin to having a 'guru', and I am so glad that I started learning from the two of them.“
“Thank you for my accordion! Spoke to Mike I believe to ask questions before purchasing my Corona Xtreme. He helped me out with the questions and concerns I had and helped me make my decision. Shipping was on time and the accordion showed up in in one piece and in prestine condition! I recommend this place“
“My children have been working with Eileen for over a year now. They have grown and developed through Eileen’s techniques and experience. Eileen is sweet and real. If a note does not sound right, she will tell you, and help you to fix it, which my kids love and respect. Highly recommend!“
