Musical Instruments And Teachers near Van Nuys

“My daughters have been coming to this music school for a couple months now and we absolutely love it here because my daughters are learning how to play the piano. They teach my girls all the notes and timing and all the basic and from there they play any notes we or they give them. They only been attending there several months and they've learn alot. I highly recommended taking your children here. The pricing is not as expensive as other schools my daughters have tried to attended.“

“I've been taking vocal lessons with Lloyd for a few months now and every lesson is a pleasure. Lessons are customized to YOUR goals and Lloyd is supportive in providing both structured and fun ways of reaching them! He has an incredible “ear” and never fails to make his students feel comfortable and welcomed in his home. He’s the definition of a warm, patient, and truly caring teacher. 100% recommend!“

“Great shop!! Ordered late in the afternoon soon before closing and they had product shipped in less than an hour. I don’t mean just a shipping label created in the USPS system, it was on its way to me! Roger and Jonathan were both very nice and professional. 2 thumbs up ? ?“

“My son loves learning guitar from Jesse! Jesse is patient and very engaging with my 6 year old and his 6-year old attention span and we are very happy with my son's progress so far! Highly recommend!“

“Amazing music school all the teachers are wonderful my daughter really loves her piano classes I really recommend this place“

“Paul is a fantastic teacher. He’s got a great teaching style and keeps it fun & engaging. A+ teacher!“

“Working with Kira has been the best thing I could have done for my voice. She is so knowledgeable in the technical aspects of the voice and has helped me overcome an issue I've struggled with my entire life as a singer. I have brought this issue to multiple other teachers and no one was able to help me before Kira. She has changed my voice and I am forever grateful!“

“My son has been studying piano at Piano4Everyone for eight years. Katya is simply the best at what she does. She somehow combines absolute mastery of her art with an unerring ability to support the needs of each student. She approaches her work with the highest level of professionalism, dedication, and joy. I have the privilege of watching Katya work with her students every week, and every week Katya reminds me of the power of music to transform lives and inspire young people to attain their creative potential.“

“I first went to Performance Guitar when I was a teenager back in the early 1980s. They were on Yucca Street in Hollywood at the time. Even back then, Kenny already had big name clients like Frank Zappa, Steve Vai, and Warren De Martini. Later, he would do custom work for Joe Walsh and Warren Cuccurullo, among many others. In 2021, I brought in my Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster for a setup and fret dress and my Fender American Fretless Jazz Bass for its first setup. Kenny did a great job with both guitars. His attention to detail is unmatched. There is nobody else who works on Fenders like Kenny. He worked alongside Leo Fender at Fender for many years back in the day, so he knows his stuff. Kenny's own line of hand-made custom guitars are highly regarded. Highly recommended.“

“RIP John Davies! Thank you for filling me with knowledge and technique. Thank you for your confidence in me. You shared your gift of Opera with the world. What a ride. May the music in heaven be as sweet as the sounds you gave us here on earth. Until we meet again.....“

“Great TeachersGreat locationGreat offerings (not just piano)Great curriculumSomewhat rigid in some ways“

He loves teaching guitar and it really shows in his dedication, patience and encouragement with his students.He is also an accomplished songwriter and performer which sets him apart from other teachers as he can teach the basics of songwriting to students who are interested.“

“I've met her in Japan several years ago at one of her workshops. Not only as a superb jazz vocalist, but she also impressed and motivated me with her distinguished guiding and coaching about making music. I moved to LA and took her lessons and workshops countlessly. She is very tolerant and supportive to any student and leads them to the fearless marvelous moment of wonderful music with her deep knowledge and performing experiences. She is a great musician, teacher, and mentor I recommend to all class jazz singers.“

“I highly recommend studying with Ted. Ted's musicianship is unparalleled (check out his Ellington CD!), and his teaching matches that. He takes things that are very complicated and turns them into something much more digestible. It's so worth it; I've improved so much. Thank you Ted!“

“Larissa is absolutely wonderful. She's always friendly and patient. I've been taking my daughter to her for 4 years. My daughter has really progressed on the piano.“

“Rico International (D'Addario Woodwinds) produces the best quality reeds and mouthpieces in this state of the art facility.“

“Ms. Cherie Valaray is an extraordinary teacher. The wealth of information I have learned from her is invaluable. Before taking vocal lessons with her, I had no idea what the resonance mask was, open throat technique, or singing with my diaphragm. Now, I can sing with less strain and have a louder, steadier sound. Her creative analogies really help me understand what I need to do in order to improve my singing. 10/10 would recommend her as a vocal coach. She has so much experience and knows what she is talking about. Not to mention that she is also caring and encouraging as well.“

“I would highly recommend Nueva Vision Community School to anyone interested in learning to play a musical instrument. The school has educated and talented music teachers and the music classes are very affordable.I got enrolled in guitar classes and in few months I was playing my first song thanks to my guitar teacher, Adrian, who is outstanding, talented, and patient.“

“Both my daughters went here and we loved it! Sapir is one of the most honest, loving and sweet people you will meet - she truly cares about the students and hires the most wonderful staff. They learn through play and sensory activities. When I asked my kids at the end of every day what their favorite part of their day was, they always respond "going to gan". I couldn't have asked for a better place to send my kids!!!“

“What a beautiful and special venue rich with history and stories! Thank you for having us!“

“This place is a drummers dream. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. They have a lot of brands/models on hand that guitar center doesn’t carry.“

“I've dealt with a lot of pro audio dealers over the years. I've had a few experiences with my "go to" venders in the past that put me and my business in very bad situations, or left me feeling like no one cared about my business at all. Vintage King miraculously saved the day each time.

The first time my usual shop was putting in a special order with a company in Germany and I had sessions booked shortly after the expected delivery date (and being a nascent studio, my gear selection was minimal at that time, so I needed everything I had). As the date was approaching the vender suddenly went dark and after MANY calls and emails I finally got lucky and got someone on the phone. They told me the order somehow never was placed on their end and there was nothing they could do to help me in time for my session! My next call was to Vintage King. Expecting a similar answer from them, I called anyway just in case they had something in stock. They didn't. But they somehow did manage to get the equipment I needed from Germany all the way to LA, and then to Boston in time for my session! I still can't believe it.

I have a few more less dramatic situations that made other venders look less than ideal, and once again Vintage King proved why they are the king of customer service. The first time was no accident. To me their name is more like a well earned title. The only reason I had a few other bad experiences with other shops after VK saved the day was that I ended up getting out of the recording business for about 6 years. I had a few small interactions with a local place (trying to support my neighbors), and another pro audio place that had something in stock that I was looking for. Not a mistake I will make again.

Now building up my home rig for personal use, I had an issue with a demo unit I bought from VK. One phone call and I had an email with the return label. I shipped it back the next day and they immediately send the replacement... NEW! I then had big issues with the delivery (to say the least). I called up my rep Bret and he was already on top of it. He had some info that I didn't which he emailed over before I could even ask. Shortly after that I got a phone call from the delivery driver who then left the package. Bret called 30 SECONDS LATER to let me know he just received the notice of delivery and to let him know if there was any issue. Good luck getting that service ANYWHERE else. Thanks to Bret and everyone else at VK! Call Bret for your new gear, you will be glad you did!“
