Testimonials

“My son started taking lessons late last fall at the School of Musical Traditions. The gang there made us feel welcome, inviting us to local events where they would be playing and giving great advice about appropriate music books. I'm of the generation where music classes started with repetitive exercises. Eventually you went on to play awful, old songs. It has surprised and impressed us enormously to see our son learn how to play actual songs of his choosing in a short span of time.”

“After 47 years of being a musician and ten years of performing, I set myself a goal for making some audio and video recordings. I spent months of trying to do this on my own and realized I needed some professional help! McKinley Corbley of the School of Musical Traditions provided me with a couple months of lessons that were fantastic and got me up and running, and actually excited about music production. She helped me set up my own recording studio, complete with a great condenser mic, recording and mixing software, and showed me how to use everything. McKinley is bright, energetic, insightful and a fun and compassionate teacher.”

“It has been one year since lessons went virtual, and I must say my stay-at-home guitar lessons and practice sessions have helped me to stay positive and safe during this socially restricted time. So thank you -- we have now become an expert Zoom student-and-teacher pair!”

“Highly recommend School of Musical Traditions. Our son has been taking guitar lessons for over 6 months now. Communication has been very good. Our son enjoys the lessons and his teacher is very knowledgeable. Staff are professional and courteous. Great place for lessons for people of all ages.”
