Musical Instruments And Teachers near Rego Park

“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. :)“

“We absolutely love this school! Professional teachers and staff. I am so grateful to everyone in the school. I cannot thank them enough for all their teaching and caring. Maggie is great and she is on top of scheduling and sending reminders to parents for classes. Mr. Chris knows how to teach and motivate students’ music learning. My child enjoy going to the lessons there.“

“We recently had Caleb and Nikos from Little Maestros at my son's birthday party and they were SO amazing! Both Caleb and Nikos are so talented, fun, and kind. They made his party super special. Everyone was raving about them afterwards! Highly recommend for your next party!“

“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 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.“

“As a professional musician and concert pianist, I hold exceptionally high standards when it comes to music education. After nearly two years of watching my daughter grow at Music Box School, I can say—without hesitation—that this school has exceeded every expectation.

The journey she’s been on has been nothing short of extraordinary. She has not only gained technical skill but also grown creatively and emotionally. Her confidence, curiosity, and love for music have flourished in ways I never anticipated. She’s not just learning to play piano—she’s becoming an artist.

That credit belongs in large part to her teacher, Ivan. He is more than an instructor. He is a mentor, a motivator, and a master of his craft. He understands how to meet each student where they are, inspire them to reach higher, and instill both discipline and joy in the learning process. His teaching reflects deep expertise and authentic care, and that rare combination has made all the difference.

Music Box School is a treasure. If you’re looking for a place where your child will receive real, foundational training in music—along with encouragement to explore their own creativity—this is where you want to be.

I offer this praise with the highest regard and deepest gratitude.“

“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!“

“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!“

“I love this store they have beautiful instruments that are worth the price as a cellist myself Ive played all 6 cello suites and the swan this is the best string instrument shop I've ever been to“

“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.“

“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!“

“This place is amazing! My daughter's been here for more than 3 years and she loves it. The staff are helpful and so nice. The whole experience has been excellent. This place is also vital to the community“

“This place is the definition of a five star experience. They were so accommodating and understanding. I didn’t want to keep them too late since I came an hour before closing but they set me right up after traveling with my Eastman; recently repaired cello on carry on air travel. (Soft case) My soundpost got knocked out during my travel. He fixed it in 45 minutes. He also caught my painfully lifted bridge and fixed it right up. No issue. My cello is much more comfortable to play on. If you’re a potential customer, Just pay the money up front and get ur instrument fixed right up. Up front . It’s that simple. This is the best place for string instrument repair. They are physicians. Very caring and attention to detail to your INSTRUMENT. If you’re a person who cares about the health of your instrument, and not your bodily urges; this is the place to go. Just have some respect and patience. We all need to eat and rest after a long day. It’s all about mutual care and rest. That’s all it is. You’ll have a fully repaired instrument in a matter of minutes. best repairs. I l love this place. I’ll be going back if I come across any issues; but for now, I am very happy with the service. I highly recommend. (P.s. my Eastman sat in my garage for 10 years with mutiple deep cracks, no strings, no bridge) I got it repaired with a new bridge and soundpost in Oklahoma City at OK strings and they also provided me with great service but they gave me a massive bridge that was hurting my fingers while I was practicing. I’m the type of person who doesn’t like to complain. I was happy with the service ok strings gave me too. They bought my instrument back to life with attention to care and detail. But Flushing violin shop contains a family of experts who are fast diagnosers and they fix issues with ease and grace. It’s 10000% worth it. Come here with respect and you’ll leave happy with a healthy instrument.“

“We love Tone Academy's program and the teachers! We have Mr. Michael and he has done a wonderful job with the toddler class. They are always so thoughtful on the themes and really provide the children with amazing instruments/ hand-made tools after every class so the children could continue the music education at home.“

“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!“

“My wife (violist) uses this shop whenever we are in the city. Always a pleasant experience, prompt communication.“

“James is an excellent teacher. He is patient, flexible with lessons, and incredibly knowledgeable about music theory/a vast array of instruments.“

“I cannot recommend the New York Conservatory of Music enough! I enrolled with the goal of learning piano, and I’ve been amazed by how much I’ve progressed. The faculty took the time to tailor lessons to my learning style, helping me not only develop strong technical skills but also gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of music. Their encouragement has fueled my passion and confidence. The personalized attention and expert guidance I’ve received here have truly been transformative.

The opportunities to perform in prestigious venues like Carnegie Hall have been incredibly rewarding, and the sense of community among students and instructors makes it a place I look forward to visiting every week. The group lessons, online classes, and master classes have provided additional layers of learning and growth. Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced musician, this school is a fantastic place to cultivate your talent and love for music. If you’re serious about your musical journey, the New York Conservatory of Music is where you want to be!“

“One of the best music schools in New York City! My kids absolutely love studying here. They’re part of the rock and jazz band, take theory, voice, and piano lessons, and every instructor has been nothing short of excellent — talented, warm, and truly dedicated.

A special shout-out to Kaitlin, who leads the Summer Musical Theater program. She’s incredible — loving, extremely prepared, and endlessly patient. The annual community events they organize are amazing and full of heart.

Also, Myra from Student Services is always on top of everything. She’s accessible, supportive, and helps with any schedule changes my kids need. I’m very happy and impressed with the education and overall experience my children are receiving.

Highly recommended! ??“

“The Shostakovich School is wonderful! My daughter is in their art program. The art teachers are very skilled and are great teachers! They prepped my daughter and she got into a gifted school for art“

“I've purchased a few necks from Kim. I explained to him what I wanted to accomplish and he offered recommendations. While not cheap, his necks are hand-made and even better than described on Kim's webpage. In the chain of variables effecting tone, the neck is pretty key. I can't say, in words, how much I appreciate and respect Kim. He truly is a master craftsman and expert on saxophone tone.“
