Musical Instruments & Teachers near Howard Beach

“James is an amazing music instructor. He’s taught me how to play the piano since I was 5 years old! He’s very supportive, kind, and always wants the best for his students. James helped me be confident when playing piano and I’ve been able to read music notes ever since! I’m now 17 years old and piano has always been a source of comfort to help me get my mind off things. Thank you James for everything you’ve done for me. 🫶🏻“

“I brought my son to Little Maestros down at MyGym in Tribeca front he time he was 6 months to a year. Every week was just a bit different, but what I noticed and loved the most was the consistency of every class. We had Lance and Danielle as our main teachers, but anytime we had a sub, they were all absolutely seamless in their movements, singing, everything. Truly impressive and you can tell alot of work, practice and preparation goes into this. Thank you so much Little Maestros for such a fun and entertaining class for the littles and this tired mom!“

“Berit Johnson is so excellent. I can’t wait to book coaching with her again, I feel so confident about the audition I have Monday that she and I prepared. ❗️?“

“I am a returning senior student who studied with Nick Russo over twenty years ago, as did my then teenage son. Then and now, Nick has been a knowledgeable and generous teacher. He is enthusiastic, encouraging, and patient. They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks but Nick is certainly teaching me some.

Since I have been playing guitar for almost 60 years, technique is not our main focus. What Nick has been helping me develop and improve is my ear. He is enabling me to hear more, sing more, and play more interesting music. I am optimistic that with Nick’s guidance I will achieve my goals. Having had experience as a student of Nick’s and as a parent of a student of Nick’s, I highly recommend Nick Russo as a teacher.“

“West Amadeus is an exceptionally organized, responsive, and welcoming music school with truly outstanding teachers. Richarlita You is an incredibly talented artist and a wonderful educator — we feel so fortunate to have her as our teacher.“

“I enjoy my vocals classes with Coach Kristin. We’ve been working together for just under a year and I’ve already noticed improvement in my confidence, breath control and vocal placement. Thank you!“

“I have been working with Ms. Dani as an adult for over 2 years and have seen great progress in my singing and music education. She is a qualified teacher who is patient, funny, and knows what she's talking about. Coming in as someone who had little technical training, with her help I was able to land lead musical theatre roles at my college and come into my passion for singing. I've never had a problem with scheduling or felt unwelcome at the front desk. Overall a positive experience I look forward to every week.“

“I am a come back player who put the horn down for 30 years before picking it back up again and trying to learn to play jazz and improvise.

I was about 6 or 7 years in to my come back when I started lessons with Bobby, and although I was already playing the odd session my technique was really unreliable - often when I played live it literally felt like I'd forgotten how to form an embouchure.

In my first lesson Bobby showed me the right way to practice flexibility exercises and after a couple of weeks I was playing up to D above high C in exercises, and using Gs and As above the staff in improvisation with confidence. My technique is still far from perfect but on a good day I have access to the full range of the horn with relative ease.

Over the next couple of years Bobby pushed me to take on harder tunes like Lady Bird, Have You Met Miss Jones, Joy Spring etc, and showed me how to link unrelated key centres with smooth lines.

One thing Bobby is really good at is helping you develop the style that you want. I am obsessed with Chet Baker and 1950s hard bop and Bobby held my hand through that journey and guided me in the right direction.

Now I play regular sessions and finally got asked to play my first gig with a professional jazz guitarist last month.

I am eternally grateful to Bobby for helping me acheive one of my life-long dreams. He is a wonderful player, a great teacher, and an all-round nice guy.

Thanks Bobby.“

“Yunus is a complete gem. He taught me a great deal and was positive and patient with me when I didn't understand something. He taught me how to vocally play with my voice when other vocal coaches would scold me for even trying. This is the beginning of a great relationship.“

“My son has been taking guitar lessons with Sasha at the studios and I have nothing but wonderful things to say. Sasha is an excellent teacher who we can fully credit for the great progress my son has made. He is professional, patient and caring- he truly wants my son to progress and succeed. The studios have always accommodated our requests and prove top notch service. Highly recommended!“

“My young son has been learning so much with our most favorite music teacher Ms. Marla. Also, the new space for the music school is lovely. A nice waiting room and great practice spaces.“

“Mr. Hon is an exceptional piano teacher. I’ve studied under a couple of instructors, and he is by far the most outstanding. His patience, deep musical knowledge, and ability to adapt his teaching style to my pace and level of understanding make each lesson both productive and enjoyable. I truly look forward to continuing my lessons with him and growing as a pianist under his guidance. :)“

“Carol is an truly amazing piano instructor. My daughter started with her at five years old, and we were consistently impressed by Carol's dedication. She expertly teaches technique, prepares students for exams, and puts her heart into organizing beautiful recitals at Steinway. Under her guidance, my daughter's confidence soared. Our biggest regret after moving out of state was leaving Carol's unmatched teaching. She is simply the best! She continues to check in and found us an instructor that is as amazing as she is!“

“Andy is a great teacher: knowledgeable, talented, and always encouraging. The newly renovated studio is a warm and comfortable environment for learning to play and to love music. I cannot recommend K's Music School enough!“

“We couldn’t be happier with the piano and violin teachers. They are talented, patient, and inspiring—my boys are truly lucky to have them.“

“I have been a student at Belle Arti for almost thirteen years, starting Musical Aurora group lessons at the age of five and continuing with piano lessons until present day (18 years old). I can say with confidence that any child is in very good hands at Belle Arti. Musical Aurora was an excellent foundation that was fun, engaging, and a platform for kids to further excel in musical understanding. My experiences with piano lessons from Massimiliano and Claudette have been nothing short of amazing. The teachers are not only wise and musically talented, but they are friendly and create an exciting environment for kids. If you want yourself or your family to master musical performance, there is no better school to attend than Belle Arti!“

“I first met Karen a few years ago and started taking lessons with her before COVID. Honestly, I had no idea I could sing the way I do now before working with Karen. Without a doubt, she is by far one of the best vocal coaches I’ve ever known. Her teaching style is not only professional but also incredibly inspiring.
Now, my daughter has started taking lessons with her too, and she absolutely loves Karen’s teaching and her honest feedback. Karen has a gift for bringing out the artist in you, helping you reach your full potential while making the process enjoyable and empowering.
If you’re serious about improving your singing, Karen is the vocal coach you need. My daughter and I couldn’t recommend her more highly!“

“Wonderful people.my husband and I have been renting for 14 years purchased a few violins too“

“Both my kids 8 year old and 5 year old take piano classes here. They both love it esp. the teachers and the books.“

“My kids took lessons here until we moved out of the city. It's been hard to find a place, where we've gone, that can get them so excited to play music. You guys rock, hope to see you again sometime!“

“I've been taking a class there and it is fantastic. Great teachers, nice facility, I even found parking to be easy. The other students are talented and motivated and it is a supportive environment.

Even though I drive there from Long Island I found it is worth the trip!“

“This was my first time getting my bow rehaired at Salchow & Sons, and I love it! I asked for black horse hair, and it was perfectly done. I really love how it makes my violin sound more full bodied and richer. Thank you so much!“
