Musical Instruments And Teachers near Derwood

“As an adult student learning Piano - I can share that OnBeat Music has provided me an engaging learning experience tailored to my interest in learning music, not just what it takes to learn to play songs, but also the foundational knowledge of music theory. I have found Manny who knows and teaches music and Zory, who manages the operations of their school, to be a welcoming and supportive team that provides a positive and encouraging environment. Glad I found them. Highly Recommended.“

“Sarah is a great teacher. Last year I decided to try my hand at learning the piano as an adult student. I took private lessons with Sarah. Sarah made learning fun and has a good technique, patience, experience besides all her other musical qualifications. I have learnt a lot and found a love for playing the piano. I will miss Sarah ..she is the best and I highly recommend her.“

“I take voice lessons and guitar lessons with Jamilia and Tiffani and they’re both great! I appreciate both of their patience, constructive criticism, and kindness, and I am certain I have improved since beginning lessons with them. This is a great place to go for music lessons - you truly learn a lot.“

“I first met Steve in 1994 and he even sold me a soprano sax. I'm a lifelong sax player and own a Mark VI Alto (1973) and a Mark VI Tenor (1969). I decided to have both my VI's redone soup to nuts last year. First was the alto and then the tenor. I then took in the soprano for some adjustments, etc. As a weekly player, I cannot express in words how well all my saxes are responding. I live by the beach now and no one other than Steve or his team touch my horns ( and yes, I will make that drive to Gaithersburg). If you want your horn done right, take it to Steve and his team! Thanks, gary b.“

“working with lessons in your home has been great. i reached out to a lot of potential services and they were the best at accommodating my schedule and location needs. the teacher ive been working with has been awesome and takes into account my skillset and interest in each lesson. definitely recommend working with them.“

“I arranged for a playing trial of several advanced beginner violins. Andrew was very helpful and had 4 fine samples of excellent instruments available for me to hear.After allowing me to listen and rule out 1 of the 4 he then offered his assessment of the ease of playing and character of the remaining three.Being a musician,I appreciated his attention to detail and the ease of picking an excellent instrument for my needs.I choose this shop because of their reputation among musicians and the customer friendly policies. For example if you buy your strings from them ( all at better prices than I have seen elsewhere ) they install them for free. As a full fledged string shop they can meet my needs as my skills grow. They do not sell, they listen and advise if asked. A shop that sets a high standard for our area. I was in and out with exactly what I needed in half an hour. A very pleasant experience.“

“Excellent teachers!, that work with the student whatever skillset or learning style they have, both adult and child alike. Adaptable when schedules change too, which is always helpful, as thats life.“

“We have been going to CCAA for 4 years. The progress my son has made is unbelievable. Highly recommend.“

“I have been shopping at Guitar Center Rockville for more than two decades and counting, and they never fail to impress me. They are always well-organized and well-supplied with all kinds of musical instruments and equipment, and the staff are always nice, professional, and passionate about what they do. As a result, I always keep coming back.“

“Very lovely sounding person over the phone, but she did move to Chester, MD, and hasn’t been able to update her address on Google. So if you’re over on the Easter shore and is looking for a piano teacher, she might be the right fit for you!“

“I made an appointment to bring my 25+ year old cello to Mr. Tong. He was waiting for me as scheduled, and I appreciated that. I was hoping to get it back into decent condition for my 11-yr old to start learning how to play. He said that ideally the bridge(broken scroll) , strings(old), pegs(2 were frozen), tailpiece(fragile), and bow should be replaced, but it would be $300+ for all the repairs. But he said that since my son is a beginner, it probably wouldn't be worth the money to do yet and we could get by as is for now if my son is careful. He realigned the bridge, tuned the cello, and wouldn't accept any money for his time! I really appreciated his honesty and kindness, and I will certainly go back to him in the future when needed. Thank you, Mr. Tong!“

“Doug Elliott has provided excellent service to me. He is very knowledgeable I'm all phases of brass mouthpieces and teaching.“
