Rex Music Store & School

Pete is an outstanding teacher. I'd say certainly he's a "master" teacher—knowing different personalities, learning styles, learning curves of his students. He's analytical, understanding, precise and human. Be ready to learn, practice and really engage and it will be well worth your time and effort. "5 Stars" all the way

I took french horn lessons with Pete for about a decade, from being a small child to a young adult. His lessons were never just music lessons--they were also life lessons. I owe a lot of myself to Pete's mentorship. It's a great little shop, run by a guy who really, really cares. And he takes covid super super seriously--vaccinated, masked, and has multiple high-flow HEPA air purifiers to make sure the ventilation can handle infection risks. Indisputably one of West Saint Paul's treasures.

I have been taking piano and accordion lessons with Pete for almost 2 years. I find him to be very knowledgeable about a wide variety of music, as well as the instruments themselves. I also find Pete to care about his students, and their families well-being, in addition to promoting, encouraging, and enhancing their musical aptitude and appreciation.
