Musical Instruments & Teachers near Streamwood

“Bruce is the best. I have tried many tuners. Bruce is very skilled and professional and is an expert at repair and tuning. He gets it right the first time. Thank you Bruce!“

“This is Phoebe Law of my dad's phone (couldn’t access it on my phone). I have only been taking lessons here for a short period of time, but my vocal teacher, Matt, has already helped me improve my voice. His drawings and some exercises may seem silly, but they really work and have made me a better singer. I’m excited to continue lessons with Matt.“

“My daughter started renting a viola from them in 5th grade, and just graduated high school. She was able to size up when needed, and they promptly took care of any issue with the instrument (although there was rarely a problem). With their rent to own program, my daughter was able to pick out a beautiful instrument upon returning her rental. The staff there was so patient and helped her try a variety of violas, bows, and cases. They didn’t rush her into making a decision, and talked us through the different options. I would recommend anyone looking to rent an instrument for their child to consider Cassandra Strings. It was an excellent experience.“

“Attended several recitals over the past few years and while each have been very well done, the Spring concert of all students was the best yet! Since growing, it was great to hold two! No more standing room only! The 2nd concert was filled with creativity and inspirational music! Like going to an afternoon concert vs a recital. Loved it an admire the dedicated teachers!“

“Hands down, by far, the best value I've come across for cellos after months searching. I bought a Soloist special edition from them from across the country and it's easily one of the best cellos I've tried under 10k, and it was practically a third that price. Todd, their president, was fantastic. He answered all my questions, sent me pictures and audio clips tailored to what I liked and was looking for, and the cello was even better than I hoped for. I also dabble in amateur lutherie and have repaired several broken cellos, bridges, shaped necks etc, and I 100% believe that they are going above industry standard for their set ups.“

“Ricky is a great teacher. I have been taking lessons with him for almost five years and have really enjoyed his teaching style. He is great with kids as well. My son takes bass lessons from him and really enjoys them. You should take lessons from Ricky!“

“Fantastic service and staff. The owner is a treat to deal with, and a breath of fresh air.“

“I needed some professional photos for my website (I’m an art teacher), and Travis did an exceptional job (my friends and family were blown away!). He was fun and creative during the shoot, and got me the final edited versions within days. He’s also photographed my band and other bands in the area, and his skills with a camera absolutely capture the energy, subtlety, and passion of each moment. I absolutely recommend his work for whatever capacity you require beautiful professional photographs!“

“Pat has been tuning our families’ pianos for nearly 20 years. He is the very very best. Tunes for celebrities when they are in town as well. You can count on him and he is a kind wonderful person as well.“

“I came to get my daughters instrument fixed. We were looking at their trumpets and were interested in possibly purchasing a new one. One of the Hannah's helped us and spoke to us about an upcoming event. That was today. From the moment we walked in, to the moment we walked out, the staff was super friendly, knowledgeable, and not pressuring at all. You can tell the staff cares and is very passionate about music.“

“One of the best music schools in the country, if not planet. Everyone is welcomed here as long as you want to rock out. I went from a complete novice on the guitar to being able to jam anywhere, anytime. Learning from Josh has helped facilitate growth on the instrument while keeping it exciting throughout the whole process. I highly recommend!!“
