“The instructor was right on time, as I was. He made me feel comfortable & important. He also was quite amusing, in that he made me laugh & not feel so serious. This is a dream of mine to do, so I'm ready to go full speed ahead!!!” Kayte L., Violin Lessons “Everyone was very professional. The rates are great. My son came away from the lesson with more confidence.” Kristie I., Tuba Lessons “My son takes piano lessons at Strand.

He and his teachers are top notch and make learning FUN! Pat H., Voice & Piano Lessons Thank you so much for finding a way to continue lessons during social distancing. It gives structure to our day with practicing and our week. It’s a little “normalcy” and a much- needed connection to the outside World.
