We are going here not so long, however our daughter love music and always enjoy time with teacher. Additionally teacher does performance recital every year and this is a great time to communicate with people and to listen others great children.

Dreamscapes BC: Wonderful & supportive team, great teachers.

Jo Nelsen: An outstanding facility in Vancouver for the pursuit of music. Professional standards in every aspect.

Shevani: Lovely well maintained grand Yamaha pianos! Excellent teachers, warm staff!

Anson Li: Facilities are new. Elevator is single and slow. This needs improvement.

Kevin Guo: My friend really likes the sinks. He always makes multiple 15 minute trips to the bathroom every time we're there.

Adi Chiru: VSO SoM used to be great. They have a great facility but it feels less and less used properly. They also used to be quite inclusive to really share love for music and music education to anyone. Now not so much; you get cut out from various events for no reason after you registered and invested effort, time and money to prepare. They make promises that they forget. They treat competition at kids level very unfairly and amazingly visibly. They made it very frustrating to even be a student there. I hope they will remember what their mission really was and is and act accordingly.

Karen Emmond: Hard to beat this school for its standard of excellence in teaching and customer service! Beautiful facility also models the school's high level of respect for all ages pursuing a musical education. As an adult, i have thoroughly enjoyed summer classical guitar instruction and my teenaged nephew's beautiful voice is nurtured and polished through thoughtful, talented guidance provided by Diane King and the jazz and vocal departments at VSO school of music. Lots of performance opportunities too!

Karen Gerbrecht: My son studies piano, chamber music, and percussion at the VSO School of Music. We are delighted with his teachers, his progress is terrific, and he loves his lessons AND practice!ss is wonderful (he succeeds at the highest level in all of his Festivals

R K: Beautiful classy place with so much character. No better place to learn music in Vancouver. 10/10

Neill M: Great facility but a lot of stairs!There is a coffee shop downstairs but the school is within walking distance of various other downtown amenities.Avoid impark and other lots that charge up $6 an hour! Street parking is half that, but does not start until 9:30am.

Linda Ly: Our son is loving the Mini Maker classes - and so are we! We’re in our 3rd term and plan to continue as long as he shows interest. He loves the songs and we love that they have purpose. Fun and educational with their lifelong learning of music in mind even at this young age.

Daniel Rae: It’s expensive but it’s worth it if you want good musical education. It gives you benefits like free practices room and discounts on concerts. Had an amazing teacher.

joseph Flack: You won't find a better music school in a central location that has the variety of interactive learning facilities, great and supportive teachers, brilliant practice rooms available almost anytime!

KD Pirahna: My son is enrolled here. Great school.

W C: Jean Lyons School of Music is a fun music school. Teachers are enthusiastic, talented, knowledgeable, polite and friendly. Recitals are held on a regular basis, showcasing all ages and all skill levels among the school students in a warm and friendly environment. My son have taking lessons here for 5 years. He love the school and his piano teacher.

Elizabeth Chong: This music school provides a wonderful environment for children or adults to learn piano or theory. It provide a wonderful balance of teaching students to be highly trained musicians but at the same time makes it fun. My kids have been students at Jean Lyons School for 8 years (Jean Brown is their teacher, and is amazing!) , and I, too, went to this music school for many years as a child (my teacher was May Lim, who was/is wonderful). Greg Hartley and Dina Corrado taught my son theory/harmony and were terrific. All of the teachers at this school are excellent, dedicated, and supportive of the students.

Valerie Ng: After being taught there for over ten years, I can undoubtedly say that the quality of excellence and dedication from the teachers and the school is always prominent and a priority. I would highly recommend starting a music career with Jean Lyons as they inspire and instill confidence within students through lesson and performance.

Ima Xtar: My child has been learning from Jean Lyons School of Music for 7 years and I had been a student there when I was a teenager. If you want a great school to learn music theory and to play the piano well, this is the place for you. I highly recommend this music school if you wish to pursue your Royal Conservatory of Music exams or if you wish to play recreationally.

Brett Gabelman: Hard to know where to start... Have had the absolute privilege of working with SOM and my classes for over a decade now. This school provides world class musician instructors, top notch instruments and a style of instruction that allows students to feel safe and supported as they tackle a new challenge/opportunity. For students facing multiple barriers to success already, the chance to undertake music lessons in such an amazing setting is indeed a frequent life changing experience. Many students I have worked with have continued to pursue music for years after their first experiences at SOM. I am professionally and personally thankful for the great work this school does

Bojan Doroslovac: Amazing

SuperSonicTaichi: Very Fun yes indeed I agree bobtillion

Kyle Pruden: Magical , wonderful and beautiful are words that come to mind. This place is magic that provides creativity to all who enter. Thank you for letting my son experience this place. Can't wait for next season

Margaret McNaughtan: Picked up a Monitor there. Didn't go inside.

Patrick McDonald: Positive:Value

Ian Weniger: I rember comrade Robyn came back from Japan and bragged about touring with Sarah. I rember moving into Mount Pleasant and seeing her tiny Music Outreach office above the Christian Supplies Warehouse. I rember her spiffing new school two blocks east when the warehouse was demolished. I rember my colleagues encouraging me to sign up the most marginalized and vulnerable students to SSoM. I remeber signing up my younger son in grade seven. I rember my older son starting his first job at Bikes For All just down the street and working on Sarah's bike for an upcoming auction while his brother was singing and strumming.Last year Sarah's foundation had my boy's back to get into the Berklee School of Music. Thank you for giving all our children the space to find their voices, eh?

B Brothers: What an amazing experience Sarah McLachlan school of music has my child. We feel truly blessed for being given this opportunity, we could not have done this problem otherwise.

Gija Williams: My son has been taking lessons for 1.5 years and at the age of 9, he can play the piano while singing which is super impressive. He can sit in front of the piano and sing songs by Alicia Keys, John Lennon, Elton John, Oasis and Vulfpeck and I did not have to ask him to practice at all. It is fun for him to study cords and perform in front of audience.I would say, you are lucky to find this place and that is how I feel.

Sanja: Thank you Sandy and Jeremy for one more succesful year at Harmony House!Zivan is developing his musicianship spontaneously and without too much effort every year allowing him to focus on his other obligations as well.Zivan is two years at HH and really enjoys being a part of a band as well as performing solo songs at the concerts.We will definitely continue to be a part of this amazing musical family.

April Haffenden: My daughter is loving her lessons at Harmony House. Jeremy is a fabulous teacher and very enthusiastic. The teaching approach has helped my daughter's confidence with learning to play the piano and to sing.

Samantha Burnet: What a fantastic place! If you want to see your young people( and your own grown up self) step into a joyful and brave way of being with music; performance, collaboration, sharing, skill development, & discovery. This is the place. ❤️ LOVE

Anita Hildebrandt: Harmony House is very special, unique and different in a way that you can witness if you give it a go. While producing measurable results, it's so easy to see that the teachers, owners and this school in general have passion about being brave, about the skills learned and having their students find passion in the music that they learn. The next difference is the students actually perform before a live audience in concert (after recording in studio) if one is up for it. With multiple programs (private instrumental, voice lessons, group ensembles and unique programs beyond), both young and old alike grow in not only skills but confidence while performing. The teachers bring out your best with skill, patience and humour. Our own daughter has grown and accelerated in playing/singing in a fairly short period of time and it's such a joy to see her into it! ps. The students get to decide what songs they want to learn which keeps it all very cool/current for them. Highly recommend this school.

Valerie Johnson: Harmony House isnt just a place for kids to take music lessons - they genuinely create a community of all ages with a love of music and give you a platform to perform, collaborate and grow musically. The adult program has been an awesome experience for me and i would recommend it to anyone who loves music and might think it is too late to play an instrument or sing - it isnt too late!

Helen&Nic Rioux: It's a great music school! Not only students learn how to play the instrument they choose, they also learn how to be confident. My 5-year old daughter started 10 months ago in the Budding Musician program; I really like the fact that she not only learns to play piano, but also singing at the same time and learning to talk & perform with microphone (in front of audience). These are the ultimate qualities I want my child to develop which will benefit her in her lifetime and Harmony House has a very well-planned program to guide their students to be confident. I have friends that sent their children to other piano school at young age and went through lots of crying & rejecting (some children never wanted to touch piano after a few months), I am very happy that my daughter is still very interested to play (although practise at home doesn't last long ;) and is making progress.

MomsDayOut: So happy we chose this over school music. The individual attention has advanced my son tremendously. The teachers are amazing!

Meagan Smith: Wonderful small music school with a family-like atmosphere. Unlike other places we have tried, these teachers are here long-term and not passing through, so the consistency is great. The added perks like twice-yearly studio recording, two professional concerts, fun family events, christmas carolling, etc. etc. really add to the experience. Sandy and Jeremy, the owners, are passionate about what they do. Highly recommended for children as well as adults.

Lorraine Holman: I have had the absolute pleasure of being a member of the Classic Rock Choir through Harmony House Music School. I came alone and was embraced with instant acceptance. This is truly a community of people who come together for the joy of singing. No pesky audition and even those who cannot read music happily learn their harmony in this incredibly chill choir. I can't wait for Seotember to start on our new songs.

Tim Parsons: In the spring of 2016, at 45 years old and at a stage of life where my kids are teenagers, I decided to start investing some time in myself, to do something that I enjoy for me. Ah, singing lessons I thought! Google to the rescue, and a few clicks later I landed on the website of Harmony House Music School. The more I read, the more impressed I became with the background and experience of the teachers, particularly Sandi Melody, one of the Directors/Teachers.I had learned that both Sandi and Jeremy Vallance (also a Director/Teacher at Harmony House) operated Spirits Call Choir, a non-denominational singing-group of people like me, people with little or no singing experience that love to sing. At the time, the spring session of the choir was just about to start, and the meeting location was very close to where I live in North Vancouver. I figured what better way to try singing and meet both Sandi and Jeremy at the same time.Yes, like most people I suspect, I was initially timid about going outside my comfort zone in doing something that I had never done outside the confines of a shower curtain. Though after making it through the first evening of singing with the choir, it was amazing how pumped and energetic I felt. Sandi and Jeremy had done a splendid job of making me feel welcome, without applying judgement to my singing, and with lots of encouragement to just “sing it out”. I was hooked, and nearly a year later, I continue to enjoy singing with Spirits Call Choir both in North Vancouver on Tuesday nights, and downtown Vancouver on Wednesday nights.In the fall of 2016, having now been singing for 6 months, I wanted more of Harmony House – I started taking private singing lessons with Sandi, and I joined a small vocal ensemble of 6 adults. The private singing lessons really helped teach me proper singing technique – I particularly noticed improvement with transitioning smoothly from chest voice to head voice, and vice-versa, and now feel more comfortable doing so when singing alone or with others. The small vocal ensemble provided a more intimate and personal experience to sing with a smaller number of people than the traditional choir, as well as a more creative opportunity to learn how to sing harmonizing music with others. Sandi and Jeremy were exceptional at identifying what little adjustments were needed to have you sounding your best individually and with a group – what great talent and skill!If you love to sing, and have the same apprehensions and fears that I expect most of us have when we go outside our comfort zone to try something new, particularly something so personal that makes us vulnerable, then Harmony House and Spirits Call Choir would be a great choice for you. Please leave your apprehensions and fears at the door and give it a try – you’ll be so happy you did. You’ll meet so many great people, and you’ll feel so much more uplifted and energetic as a person.

Holly Workman: Hands down - best music school ever. Kids/youth stay engaged and motivated because they get to do the kind of music they want to do. Promotes music for life - and if you want - for work as well. Amazing (for adults too!!)

Steph Hendy: Harmony House has helped me to become the strong individual I am today. As a little kid I fell inlove with music, and Sandi - along with Harmony House - continued to fuel that fire. I've been with HH for atleast 8 years, being offered challenges and support all throughout. HH and Sandi were amazing to help me continue my education in music when I was struggling to get by, and never failed to cheer me up.HH is the only school in the lower mainland that offers this type of experience: recording in studios, performing on a professional stage, and having the opportunity to work both privately and with others. I have learned much from my time at HH and will always keep it close to my heart.

Jacqueline M Massey: Harmony House provided an excellent environment and rich learning opportunities for my daughter who wished to explore her musical interests in a supportive, nurturing place. Her many years spent there has had an indelible impact on her creative live. Sandi Melody is an outstanding leader, and talented teacher, whose philosophy is inspirational and effectively applied at HH. I would highly recommend the school to anyone at any level who wishes to express themselves musically. I am personally very grateful to the school and its staff for influencing my daughter in such an overwhelmingly positive, life enhancing way.

Cori Creed: Harmony House is a wonderful place to learn. The programming is set up to inspire, motivate and put just the right amount of pressure on students so that they practice!Music, especially vocals, is not something that can be taught well without creativity. The teachers at Harmony House have many approaches to drawing out techniques and results, and work with each individual to find a method that resonates.

Fraser Christian: I took lessons at Harmony House for four years and I would recommend them to anyone that wants to take their musicianship to the next level. The teachers are positive and encouraging, and all amazing musicians in their own rights. There is also a strong emphasis on developing skills for live performances, which is extremely beneficial to anyone looking to play in live bands. This all happens in one of the most welcoming and supportive environments I've ever been a part of.In short, Harmony House offers unparalleled instruction in an ideal environment, and anyone looking for music lessons would be crazy not to go here!

Shari Ulrich: My daughter took piano lessons from Sandi Melody at Harmony house when she was 5 and 6 years old - which was 20 years ago! HH gave her a fantastic start as a musician, and she has been a professional musician since she was 12. The footage I have of her playing "When the Saint's Go Marching In" at one of their wonderful recitals is priceless.Harmony House provides an incomparable foundation for all who come through its doors.

Jared Radvak: Harmony House always always been nothing but awesome for me! I've taken drum lessons, performance classes, and just about every other course they have had to offer over the years. Harmony House always provides students with fun teachers and a positive learning environment which can be a rarity these days.. I have made several close friends over the years at Harmony House and wouldn't trade the years of lessons for anything. Sandi herself is the most motivating positive individual out there and her vision for harmony house is spectacular. She truly believes every single student has their own talents and it is her job to bring it all out! Thanks Harmony House :)

Alayna Gibbs: My past 5 years at harmony house have helped shape me as a person, as well as a musician. Throughout high school, I have enjoyed coming to harmony house for music lessons at the end of the day. Learning to sing and expand my vocal range with different techniques is a skill that I can hold onto for the rest of my life.

Adam Bushell: Harmony House is not just an academic institution. It is a community of musicians, young and old, beginners and experts, that allows its members to delve into an awesome world of artistry. Harmony House laid the foundation for my exploration into this world and many years later I can confidently say that my life was changed for the better.

Cheryl Aniceto: Positive:ProfessionalismProfessional teachers and staff.

Humble Teez: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,ValueCW Music definitely is one of the best places to learn music.

Luv Pinks: Such a talented bunch. The staff is great. Chrstinr is amazing. And really great with the kids! Highly recommended

maryrose katipunan: My daughter Kayleen started in CW Music when she was 6 yrs old. Instructors are fantastic. Teacher Christine is Kayleen;s piano teacher, voice coach and one of her band instructors. she is awesome and committed to providing a good standard of training, creative, patient and very encouraging. Kayleen gained a lot of confidence in singing. She enjoyed every single lesson and band practice with her band mates and instructors. I highly recommend for everyone who love music.

Elana Wu: Christine is a kind patient teacher who genuinely cares about her students. Highly recommend

Armie Franco: My daughter Emma has been a student of CW Music since she was 8 years old. CW Music has paved the way for my daughter to shine her own light. She has developed her talents tremendously.Teachers at CW Music are very knowledgeable, encouraging and inspiring. They selflessly impart their knowledge and skills to all students.CW Music has built and boosted my daughter’s and other students’ self confidence through setting them up to perform in different public events.I am grateful for CW Music teachers and staff for their dedication in developing every student’s musical skills and talents.I highly recommend CW Music!

Sonia Gilmore: My daughter has been training with CW Music for 2 years now and we couldn't be more grateful for such an outstanding music school. CW Music goes above and beyond for their students and offers the highest standards of teaching. Christine & Allen truly want whats best for their students and they come from a place of integrity, honesty and are their students biggest cheerleaders. My daughter trains with Marc for singing and ukulele and to see where she has come in 2 years is truly something. They go above and beyond and we couldn't imagine not having them as part of our lives. I highly recommend CW Music not only for their outstanding school, teachers and leadership, but because they make you feel like family and have only the best interests of their students and their families in mind. They love music and sharing these gifts and you can see why.

Rainbow Lovet: CW.Music is really awsome because I met new friends and building my confidence. When I first came to CW.Music I was really shy to talk to my music teachers but now I'm talking to them all the time. Also C.W. Music is like my second home because I always go there 4 days every week and I really enjoyed it. The teachers there are really nice cool and awesome.

Shirley: CW music is amazing place to learn music! With passionate and talented instructor and staffs, my lessons with Christine has been an indescribable experience. Christine is like an angel, gifted with instrumental talent and with a beautiful voice, anyone who take lessons with her would be so honour. I found myself really enjoy her class as she is very charismatic. She has a wonderful office manager named Allen, he is super hard working, super helpful and gifted! I highly recommend CW Music to anyone who is considering! :)

Michael Soltys: The best music school in Vancouver!!!

Sophie Gordon: I started voice lessons at Horizon a few months ago after years and years of being too shy to sing. I have been enjoying it so much! Greg Dent is an amazing teacher. He has helped me get over my singing shyness and our classes are always so fun! Highly recommend :).

Nick Gomez: By far the best music learning centre I have been too. I strongly recommend going to them for any sort of music knowledge. Notably Danny and Chris are amazing and So is everyone else there is as well!!

Enayat Ahmady: I have been a vocal student at Horizon for a couple of months now and they have not only helped me improve tremendously but also gain confidence. I am currently training with Neil Mcmillan who is a wonderful instructor that wants to see you succeed but also makes sure to push you to improve. I highly recommend Horizon School of Music for anyone that has always thought of branching out but were too afraid to take the first steps. They are great with communication and they make sure to listen to your goals and set you up with the right instructor to fit your needs. Thank you to Kris, Sarah and the entire team at Horizon for helping me out!

Katie Boughen: Horizon has been a place of inspiration and support for me and my musical journey. They care so deeply that you find a right fit with your teacher and constantly check in with their students about how they are doing. I couldn’t imagine being anywhere else and I’m so excited to keep learning and growing here❤️

Kylen Fox: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,ValueExcellent vocal instruction from Neil McMillan, and the administration helped to pair me with him as a coach which was a great help. Great communication from everyone. Highly recommend.

Lumen Beltran: Great music school! Their team helps you get set up with a music teacher who is aligned with your interest in genre, level of ability, and personality. I take voice lessons with Rocky every Wednesday and she is awesome :) Very friendly and knowledgeable!

Suu: Best decision to sign up for lessons. Great people and awesome teacher.

Barry Petkau: Horizon has been a wonderful discovery for our son as he began learning guitar and bass over the past year. He really connects with his teacher and Jacob has inspired him to practice more to improve his playing.

L Shields: I highly recommend Horizon School of Music. I have taken both private and group sessions from Kris Schulz and Rob Hamilton and have been thoroughly impressed. Both guys are excellent players and teachers and really put an effort in to improve your playing. As I live in Seattle, I take the lessons over the Internet. Despite the distance, I feel like we are working in the same room as they are very used to dealing with online learning. I also appreciate how they keep the lessons fresh by mixing Music fundamentals in theory along with learning pieces that are interesting to me. Horizon also has a great online presence with resources that are available to students which allow you to track your progress and access various worksheets that assist in tackling particular challenges we face as musicians. The teachers at Horizon keep the process of learning fun through online workshops group concerts and the like. They provide free clinics in the community and have engaged in fundraising efforts for people who are facing challenges. They truly are a bunch of good people. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Alison Gibb: I’m a long time student of Horizon School of Music and chose to continue my music lessons online when I moved to Australia. The personal guidance from the Horizon team and their deep understanding of how to best support my learning is second to none. I always leave my lessons feeling excited about my progress and inspired by where my musical journey is going. Recently for one of the more technical lessons we recorded the session so I was able to go back after the fact and break everything down again step by step which helped a lot in absorbing the material. The teachers I have worked with have each been amazing in connecting to my musical pathway and taking me in meaningful directions towards my goals, with skill progression that feels challenging, satisfying and most importantly, musical. I always look forward to each lesson and the personal connection and tailored instruction makes me feel like a valued part of the Horizon music community.

Wanda B.K. Boyer: I am so grateful that a friend recommended I take lessons at Horizon School of Music to begin my journey with the guitar! I had an introductory call with Kris, and he asked me incisive questions to determine what instructor would best suit my level of past musical experience, my learning style, and the type of music I would be interested in learning. He was so warm and encouraging, and even gave me a tip on how to form that pesky F bar chord!Kris matched me up with Madeleine, and she is AWESOME. She is so kind and patient with me, and her teaching techniques are impeccable. I really appreciate how she teaches me, say, a scale or scale patterns, and then WHABAM it’s the basis for a song that I’m going to learn! Also, Madeleine has a really keen sense of new songs that I’ll be motivated to learn, and has really laid out clearly what I need to do to gain competency. She makes me feel like a million bucks by identifying when I’m following along with what she’s teaching, when I discover what she’s leading me towards. I’m stoked to be able to learn from such an accomplished musician and supportive teacher!

Nicolas Arnaud: I participated in both Advanced Improvisation and Music Theory online courses taught by Kelly Brown and Rob Hamilton. Both courses are excellent, I had a blast with both of them, enjoyed them very much.Kelly opened the door to so many possibilities and as always, having the opportunity to learn from him is really precious. He has lots of experience and lots of skill in the craft. He has provided a lot of guidance that is so rare to find elsewhere because not so many people have it, and very precious indeed, but most importantly because he cares about his students' development. I feel very fortunate to have him as a teacher, and sometimes I feel the need to practice more to pay homage to all the things he has shown to me and taught me :) I believe the most important thing is that I'm progressing and as Kelly said, to keep moving forward.Rob has provided an excellent resource, reference and background of music theory, but not just theory, applied theory I would say. His course was perfectly structured and delivered, and one thing that comes to mind is the huge number of songs and examples he provided where music harmony was applied, with lots of my favourites as part of them. He would demonstrate these examples live and simply, with an acoustic guitar. The course was a pleasure to attend. To be honest, we could go for hours, poor Rob, he almost had to kick us out. He has also provided reference material and books which are great to have.Having both workshops has been amazing, both teachers are excellent and they provide two very different approaches, and if I had the time, I would probably continue learning from both.I hope they become a staple of Horizon's workshops as they deserve it, the workshops are golden opportunities to advance one's learning as a guitarist and as a musician; and that they continue with a sequel of these courses in the future.I recommend these courses to anyone.

Marco Duenas: Start it playing around with my guitar when the shut down occurred. Was mostly trying to do things on my own using YouTube and web, just whatever I could find and whatever sounded good to learn. Best decision I’ve ever made after months of struggling not really knowing what to do was partnering up with Horizon School of Music. Wow, I wish I could’ve gone back and started with them since March. I wasted so much time and what a difference Kris has made in my world of music. I’m a blind person so I was very skeptical about how learning an instrument online would be. I’m in Los Angeles and was unsure if doing this on zoom or FaceTime would work. Well, it did and it Has. I love the school and everyone that I have come in contact with has been simply awesome. My progress has been so fast and so much fun. Kris listens to what I say and really Taylor’s the class for me. He thinks outside the box and it’s not there just to show me how to copy a song that I want to learn. Although that’s what I wanted, just to play the songs I like but now I’m improvising, playing a couple of tunes and singing. Wait, what? I don’t sing, well, I guess I do. Can’t wait to see where I am six months from now, stay tuned!

Melanie Reynolds: Great experience...know how, space and good people

Dave C: It's a time in life when I can finally focus on something I dearly love, music. My wife and I had stumbled upon Horizon School of Music to see a concert (Trevor Gordon Hall--amazing!). That was a year ago. The place had a certain something about it that I could not put words to, but I knew it was the right fit for learning guitar the way I wanted to learn it.I asked Kris for a recommendation from his roster of instructors. I told him I wanted not only to learn guitar, but also how to produce my own music at home. Kris told me about Kelly, so I went with it. And wow.Kelly and I have had 4 or 5 lessons to date. I don't think that even if I had traveled the world and interviewed thousands of potential teachers, I could have found a better fit than Kelly. He is exactly, precisely, what I was looking for to help me in this journey.I am deeply grateful, and looking forward to growing as a musician with Kelly and Horizon.Thank you Kris and Jillian!

Patrick Dore: Finding a guitar teacher that "fits" is no easy task especially as an adult student. Kris listened and set me up with Kelly Brown. Kelly has been challenging me since day 1, always keeping me rooted in the very basics of music while expanding my skill set. He is a very experienced and intuitive educator and, while it always hasn't seemed so, has improved my playing dramatically in a very short period of time. Isn't that why we take lessons from experts?Thanks

Michelle Jenkins: Kris and all his staff provide an amazing teaching/mentoring service for musicians of all ages and abilities. We lucked out when our guitar loving son got a chance recommendation to look Kris up for lessons (back when Kris was inspiring students from his home studio) over 6 years ago. Since then Kris has gone on create an impressive school of diverse, dedicated teachers for multiple music disciplines. The school is very attentive to individual needs and flexible in their approach and delivery (including online scheduling, payment and remote lessons as requested). Over the years we’ve racked up lessons weekly, monthly group blues and jazz sessions , weekly jam sessions/performances to one-on-one jazz guitar (with the master Kelly Brown). It is with immense gratitude that I recommend Horizon School of Music.

Linh Jiang: Horizon school of music is a great place for my daughter to have her violin lessons with Hannah. They are flexible and always willingly help adjust our schedule whenever needed. The owner Kris is very personable and my daughter was very happy to meet him so that he can help us set up our lessons. Thank you for your professionalism, friendliness and patience.

Adrian Coyne: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,ValueHave had lessons with Rob & Rocky and they have both been outstanding in all aspects of teaching from how they interact with students to their music knowledge. Kris was also very helpful from the start in organizing lessons and taking an interest in the music I was interested in learning

Paul Ngo: I am so glad I found Horizon School of Music. Although I have just started I feel I have learnt so much already in such a short amount of time. The staff are amazing and welcoming. They definitely have made it a point to observe my needs / goals as a musician and match me with a instructor best suited to me (Kelly Brown, great teacher) If you have any plans to pick up and learn an instrument I would definitely recommend Horizon.

wowowine: The teachers here are really thoughtful and flexible to my schedules. My son got trail lessons on different instruments and he fell in love with piano. Now he attends to the school regularly. All teachers know his name. They create a welcoming atmosphere when he steps into the classroom. Definitely A+ school. Send your child to have a trail class you'll know what I mean.

hsieh hank: 專業的老師 ....合理的價格 ... 我的小孩都開始喜歡上音樂課了

Iris Jiang: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,ValueMy kids enjoyed the music lessons here. The teachers are really nice and patient. They have also done a great job in Covid-19 protocals which makes us feel safe. We have been coming here for over a year.

William Lane: I've been coming here for a few weeks now and I don't plan on stopping anytime soon! They have extremely flexible hours and we're easily able to accommodate my lessons around my work schedule! In my experience, all of the staff here are excellent, not only is reception lovely, the instructors are very polite and highly knowledgeable. I would strongly recommend Century Music School to anyone who is looking to try learning a new instrument or honing in on their skills!Edit: I've now been coming here for over a year and a half. I strongly believe that taking piano lessons here, was one of the better decisions I've made over the years. In such a short time, my abilities have soared! I now can confidently play many classical pieces and I truely enjoy the sound I'm able to generate.I still strongly recommend Century Comprehensive Arts School!

Fei Wang: Reasonable price with experienced instructors. It's definitely the best choice if you are a new starter.

Oni M: Wow! Surprisingly wonderful and new school. The service here is excellent, extremely friendly reception and the teachers all have professional training but good with kids. My son really enjoys his piano class, which was a surprise for me... Recommend to anybody enrolling kids for first time but also to those serious about pursuing music, the quality here is unbelievable for the price!!

__: My daughter is learning piano there, the teacher is really good and I would recommend it.
