Falls River Music: what do users think?
G. _: Arrived during posted business hours (~6:20pm) to purchase some items but I arrive to a sign reading "No counter service available. Personal lessons only now, please come back later." While I appreciate the fact they give lessons, you can hire someone to work to the desk so you don't lose customers or sales. So their open sign is really an "open" sign. Please post more accurate open hours or hire more staff to resolve this in the future.
allison lewis: My daughter has taken piano lessons here for 5 years. She can be shy but her instructor is so positive and encouraging that she just loves her. She takes the time after her lesson to share with me what they are working on and how my daughter is doing. Our instructor also teaches flute and is very flexible when my daughter wants to switch gears and get some extra help with that instrument. The music store has been great and very flexible with any changes to fit in our crazy schedule. The owners are very kind and friendly.
John Spencer: My kids have taken lessons here for years and I love the personal touch given by Steven and Michelle. There was a period of time when my daughter was going through a stage of shyness and they made her feel so welcome, comfortable, and like family. I love having these folks right in the neighborhood.
Kathryn Wall: My daughter has taken lessons at Falls River Music for 5 years and she has grown as a musician. The teachers are talented and patient with students. The staff is great and flexible. I would highly recommend this studio to anyone looking for either an intro to an instrument, or someone who is looking for an intermediate to advanced level. Easy to work with and convenient location.
Victoria Jenny: Falls River Music is great. Bob, Steve, and others there really care about those who are taking lessons and do all they can to educate and share knowledge. The lessons are great and then you can actually perform through recitals, band camps, and student bands.
Marsha Crum: We have been with Fall’s River for several years. Fall’s River Music is not the closest music store for our family, but we wouldn’t consider going anywhere else. Steve and Michelle are both very easy to work with, and they are always quick to respond to any unexpected schedule changes or any questions we may have. My son’s drum instructor is Michael and he is fantastic with him. He (my son) is legally blind and is unable to see the sheet music. Michael has tailored his lessons in a way that he is able to learn the music in a non-traditional way. Fall’s River is the only place for my young musician 😊
Reza Hatefi: My kids have been going there for years and love it!
Amber Babcock: Worst customer service. This is the second time I have visited this music store during their posted business hours and no one was there. I waited 20 min after time to open and finally had to leave.
Baker Romeo: I brought a used bass to Falls River Music this past week to have it checked out, have a setup done, and to ask that they investigate some fret and nut buzz. They estimated the price at $45, which is less than a setup costs at your typical big-brand guitar store. I got the call yesterday, the actual price was $15 because they didn't find any issues calling for any more involved operations.They could have just charged me the forty-five bucks and I would've been happy to pay it, but they gave me a square deal, and that's what you can expect. The staff and the owner are friendly and polite, and I'm looking forward to signing up for some bass lessons here before too long.
Lea Nardolilli: I was looking for a fun way to ensure our son practiced his trombone over the summer. I found their summer camp, and figured we would give it a shot. When I picked him up the very first day he asked if he could sign up for a second week because he had so much fun. He learned so much in 2 weeks, and had a great time! It was so fun watching the kids during the end of camp concert! Steve was great with the kids, and made sure my son always had parts to play! He's already asking when the next camp is! We were very happy!
Denise F: Signed up through Groupon, had no problems using the coupon then continued on month to month. My daughter really likes the instruction, Michael, for drums. Have had good experiences/interactions with both owners and since the waiting area is in the lobby I get to see a lot of other interactions. Everyone working and coming for lessons seems to be happy, things seem to run pretty efficiently as well and you can see that many long term relationships have been built with parents, teachers, and students. Would recommend as lessons are reasonably priced to allow your child explore their musical side!
Mary: My kids have been taking music lessons at Falls River Music for years now and they love it! The instructors really listen to my kids and get a feel for their taste in music so they can make learning fun for them. Both of my boys want to practice and make their music teachers proud and that's because of that student/teacher rapport. Besides the lessons, my kids have done the summer camps, recitals (free here), and (when they were ready) the open mic nights. We always find instructors just hanging around on open mic night - just to support their students! Where else do you find that kind of support?Before we went to Falls River Music, we tried 2 other music lesson places in our area. One of them had so much overturn, my son had a new teacher 4 times in 1 year! At the other place, the teachers were very strict and my kids were always nervous around them.I highly recommend Falls River Music - and I have recommended them to several friends who are also happy there.
Michelle Coon: The first of a series of summer music camp concerts, started tonight. The students did a great job. The instructors did an awesome job putting it all together! Good going every one👍
Michael Richardson: This was by far one of the WORST experiences we have EVER had. We bought a groupon to try out this music school. We set up the time with the owner. Our kids were taking guitar and piano. We really LOVED the piano instructor. The guitar instructor was okay.My first red flag should have been when the owner wanted to charge me for the trial after finding out I had a groupon. I actually received 3 lessons for a 4 lesson groupon. Then it started. We went in one day and we were told by the staff on duty that we owed money for all of the past lessons. We paid what was requested of us and asked to be called by someone who handled the books so we could work it out. The owner was Steve was extremely rude and after taking way too much time out of my work day I finally understood his ridiculous bookkeeping methods. Btw- I have a college degree in mathematics. At that point I started keeping my own records. I knew we wouldn't be returning and I was showing that we were owed one more lesson from the money I paid them. I asked to have them clarified on their end. Once again Steve called me but this time SCREAMING that I never paid them. I sent him an email with the 2 groupons attached as well as the large payment I made and told him we wouldn't be returning. Life is too busy to work with someone of this demeanor who can't handle their bookkeeping. It was again the most ridiculous experience I think I have EVER had with a business owner. I have NEVER been treated so disrespectfully by someone who is trying to earn your hard earned money. It is a shame too as again we really loved the piano instructor but NEVER NEVER NEVER would I go back here because the owner is a mess.
SUMMER AGMOTIONS: i took violin lessons there from rachel and i loved it i used not not like violin that much but rachel made it easy and fun

The Musicians Learning Center: what do users think?
The Blue Morpho: My son has thrived with his lessons.
Mitch Baney: MLC has been absolutely amazing. Craig is one of the best teachers I have ever had, and the staff here are extremely prompt and professional. I cannot recommend this place enough!
Penka Iliya: My son enjoys piano lessons at The Musicians Learning Center. His teacher Marianna is excellent! She has great approach to little kids!
jeferson patiño: My daughter is being here learning piano for 1 year and a half, she love the place, her teacher and piano classes as well. Highly recommend.
Cat SeiyaKou: Positive:ProfessionalismI've been taking singing and guitar lessons here since I was in middle school, the teachers here are very passionate and know what they're doing. Almost about to release my first song which wouldn't be possible without Craigs training over the years. I can't wait to continue my lessons here and continue to learn and grow.
Lynne: Positive:Communication,ProfessionalismMy son loves taking piano lessons there. They go above and beyond at encouraging him and provide challenging pieces that are perfect for him. It's lifted his self esteem which is so important for kids right now. They also call every so often to ensure that everything is going well with his lessons. Highly recommend.
BigonBig919: People are friendly and instructor's are great and patient.
Katie Simons Pahner: We love Musicians Learning Center! Our daughter has been taking guitar and voice lessons for over a year now and loves it! The teachers are highly-trained and exceptional with children. They encourage - without being overly rigid - and, more importantly, make the experience FUN. Kids can earn various rewards by meeting practice goals. To see how much our daughter's love of music has soared (along with her confidence) is quite amazing. The front desk staff could not be more friendly or more responsive by email or phone, which is a huge value-add. They also occasionally check-in by phone to see how the lessons are going, if we have any questions etc., which is rare in business these days and is appreciated. HIGHLY recommend.
F. Alex: Excellent place for music lessons on many instruments, and currently offering both in-person and virtual options.
Scott Geater: Everyone is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable!
Familia QC: It's a very organized academy, caring about their students and every detail to make their experience enjoyable.Quality time and motivation, make the kids eager to accomplish the goal of each lesson!My child is 5 years old, and got happily caught into the music world!
Delia Diamond: Unbelievably kind and helpful front desk and Leilani’s voice lessons have been A M A Z I N G! So thankful to have found you guys.
Ray Rivera: My two granddaughters spend summer vacation with us here in Wake County. Every year we get them involved in activities to help them learn and grow to be respectable children and eventually adults. They have been involved in gymnastics, karate, swimming, and other organized activities. This summer we heard their interest in music lessons, specifically guitar and drums. We are so glad we did and our only regret is that they had to return home to Connecticut and could not continue. They loved and we were happy with the lessons and especially Chris. Tell Chris I was FaceTiming with Jordyn and she told me to tell Chris hello. I didn’t know how to accomplish that, however, now that I have this opportunity please tell Chris that Jordyn said hi. They will be back next summer and we will return for lessons. So on behalf of Jaeda and Jordyn, thank you for your time and hopefully we will see y’all in the future. 👍 Raymond Rivera
Jorge Valero: Very didactic class. I love it.
Donna Ecton: I appreciate the email reminders and help from staff when rescheduling. The staff are always very pleasant. Thank you!”
sara pittenger: My daughter loves her guitar lessons and Miss Emily. She is excited to go to class every time
Jessie Tenenbaum: We've been going for a few weeks now and really like it- the staff is friendly and helpful and my kids love their teacher!
Callie Wright: We love the Musicians Learning Center! The instructors are fun, the reward system keeps my kids wanting to learn more and communication with the staff is great.
Kasey Helton: We love lessons here! My son, my daughter, and I all take lessons and it's our favorite day of the week. The instructors make music so much fun that my kids sit down to practice without prompting. The location is really convenient and scheduling lessons with the front desk is always easy. Group lessons are a huge hit with my kids too. It allows them to meet other instructors and have a "bonus" lesson on a weekend day. The instructors are all talented in not only music, but teaching. They really connect with the kids and create a love of music.
Diane Womble: My son has been taking guitar lessons with Jon for the past year and a half. He has learned so much and really looks forward to his lessons every week. I highly recommend The Musician’s Learning Center for all levels of musicians!
Anne Branzell: nice setting, creative personalized intelligent instructors. very friendly office staff

School of Rock: what do users think?
Kevin Cook: Great school! I've been taking Guitar lessons with Shane for just over a year and have made tremendous progress due to his diligent work ethic, enthusiasm and determination to continually push me just out of my comfort zone so as not to stagnate my progress! I highly recommend this school for anyone who wants to progress on their musical path!
Alexandra Trinks: It has taken me a few months to decide to write the review for Raleigh School of Rock. I was hesitant to leave a poor, albeit honest, review, because I felt bad for the business owners. However, I decided to let others know about my experience with this establishment.I first learned about School of Rock through friends; our friend's daughter goes to one in Chapel Hill. I was thrilled when the Raleigh location opened. I was excited for my two boys to attend. They play piano and drums. I was mostly excited about the opportunity for them to play music with other people. From my experience (I dabble in guitar), it's much harder to play with other musicians.The problems started right off the bat.1. The teaching method that the school uses, "The School of Rock Method" is based on an app that the kids are supposed to use for practice. Well, not ONE of the teachers, or owners, has a clear idea of how to use it proficiently. It's like they are trying to learn it along with the kids. This, to me, is unacceptable. Example: the song that the kids were learning was in the certain musical key, as per the app. Turns out, when the the song was taught at the school, the teacher decided to change the key and transpose the music. With a different key, there was no way to practice the song at home. After multiple attempts to try and get the music in correct key, I gave up. Michelle, one of the owners, does not know how to do that.2. The school does not assign homework. This MIGHT work for some kids, but I really don't see how one can learn music without practice. My kids came to the school with some experience, but their skills started to deteriorate almost as soon as they started.3. To my knowledge, non of the teachers at the school hold musical degrees. Maybe the owner has some musical background, but I'm not sure. At the end of our time there, I decided to take some guitar lessons for myself, with Chris, who teaches guitar and drums. I was absolutely shocked to learn that Chris, who is also a "musical director" there, has never studied music theory! He DOES NOT know how to read music! He did not know the difference between a music staff and guitar tab. Yup, that's the musical director for you. In addition, while being the official drum instructor, he admitted to me that he was currently in the process of teaching himself the drums.There were many, many more problems with this place. I don't have time to write a novel. Just know that if you enroll your kid in this place you will be wasting your money. For the price they are charging I expect my kid to receive a very good quality musical education. You will not get that. You will get to drop off your kid at a sort of musical camp, where all the adults have no idea what they are doing.

Raleigh Music Academy: what do users think?
Alain Tartevet: Learn piano, keyboards, synths programmation, Midi environment and music production today! One on one virtual classes are tailored to your needs. Contact Alain or Paul at Raleigh Music Academy for more information.
Eric Fitch: Took guitar lessons here for about 2 1/2 years and loved it! Paul was a fantastic teacher. One of my favorite parts was the student shows, which gave an opportunity to perform with a other students in front of an audience. Highly recommended!
Amanda Molson: I loved taking beginner acoustic guitar lessons at RMA. Teacher Paul Warren was patient, supportive, and flexible to meet my schedule. I highly recommend their one-on-one classes if you are just starting out with a new instrument or if you're building on existing skills. So much fun!
Amy Pierce: We have taken lessons here for years and really love it!
Laura: I have loved taking guitar lessons from Paul. He allows you to focus your lessons on what you really want to be learning. The student shows are so fun and a great way to try out preforming in a positive environment.
Janet Thomas: My son has been taking guitar lessons from Paul for almost six years. Not only is Paul a great teacher, he is also a mentor and role model for my boys. (My younger son has been taking drum lessons for three years.) The monthly student shows are a great way for the students to perform in a low-stress, welcoming environment, and it has been great watching the progression of my own kids as well as other students. Choosing RMA was one of the best decisions we have made for our kids!
Casey Olevsky: I attended Raleigh Music academy and had a great experience. The instructors were very detailed and incredibly helpful. They were super personable and I'd highly recommend them for anyone looking to take lessons at any age. It's a very convenient location and above all else is a locally run business. I'm always a huge fan of supporting local businesses rather than the big chains that offer lessons elsewhere. Give them a try, you won't regret it!

Kim Wride: We had an appointment with a salesman at a big box music store that didn’t show so we left and googled drum stores and 2112 was just a few minutes from us so decided to stop in. Jorg was incredibly knowledgeable and spent over an hour with us teaching us about builds and walking us through different options. He was very straight forward but never pushy. He answered our questions and gave us the info we needed to make an informed decision. My son is thrilled with his new drum set! The pricing was great and we are so happy to support a localbusiness!
James Rider: My son and I walked in and everyone was really nice. They let us play a snare even though we were clueless. They helped us find a stand in a catalog and ordered it for us.

Barton Neu: I recently purchased a Ludwig tom stand. Despite it being the floor model (the last one they had!) 2112 told me it was in new condition and it was in PERFECT condition. No flaws of any kind and works perfectly. Shipping was beyond fast! I had a tom mounted on a cymbal stand (which I don’t like) for a short practice session and I was grumbling. No matter! 2112 had the stand here the next day! Also, since it was a floor model, 2112 gave me free drum sticks of my choice!2112 Percussion IS customer service! A lost art in this world. Thank you to Chris and the 2112 staff!
airplane pilot 4000 ryan the pilot: Everything Drum. Great service
Brittany Clark: Incredible customer service. I was buying a ride cymbal for my husband and they didn't correct me when I pronounced Paiste wrong lol, they just made a point to say it out loud so I could learn. I respect that. They also called to inform me the t-shirt color I ordered was sold out and were super patient while I chose a new color. They shipped everything in an unmarked box so the surprise wouldn't be ruined! Thank you guys so much
P Strickland: This place is the best. Incredible selection with a friendly and knowledgeable staff. What more could you want. Just wish I lived closer.
Chris Jepsen: Best drum shop,,, Ever!!!
