Best Harp Lessons Seattle Near Me

Bruce Baker: Incredible selection of instruments, supplies, books. Active rooms for gathering to jam, sing, learn. A treasure.

Laura Alexandra: They have a wide variety of instruments and they are also a school. People are very nice here and if you have any doubts they are happy to help

Anna Hagen: From harps to stools to harp specific pickups, Dusty Strings products are some of the best investments I've made as a musician and performer. Great products and great people!I'm a fulltime professional harpist and my first Dusty Strings purchase was the padded harp stool-- I've carried it to every gig for 15 years and it is a back saver! Then I installed the Dusty Strings pickup in my pedal harp. Despite the nerves of applying glue to my instrument, the installation was easy and the pickup made gigging instantly better! I can plug in by myself or connect with a sound engineer in a minute. Because I could amplify and not strain myself trying to be heard, I recently performed 28 gigs in one month. I've used their pickup so much I've installed two more in my 36 string lever harp and 25 string lap harp!But the best thing is the Dusty Strings team. They are so gracious to work with. Whenever I had a question about their products and my harps, I would call and get wisdom and tips from people who are obviously passionate about their products. I love any chance to interact with them.

Ralph Palmer: Excellent store for new and used instruments as well as lessons. Mostly fretted instruments, I think.

Kaya Peterson: I went here to rent a banjo yesterday and the customer service exceeded all expectations. I'm a beginner and they gave me an extremely thorough overview of the instrument and just generally seemed to really care about music and the instruments and enjoy introducing people to those topics. In addition, the rental process was simple and a fair price, in my opinion. I'd highly recommend going to this store, we are lucky to have local businesses like these in Seattle!

David Pfister: John in the repair shop was very knowledgeable and able to lower my guitar action to a much nicer height. Very neat shop, check it out.

Susan Canfield: I recently went to Dusty Strings with a precious guitar made by my husband in the early 1970s. He passed and I wanted to get it repaired so it can be played at his memorial service. The two Jacobs I met with there were exceptional. Jacob P was sensitive and helpful with my request, and Jacob C did a beautiful job on repairing the guitar in time for the service. He did an assessment, explained each step of the repair process, and communicated along the way. Rarely does one see such thoroughness and pride in workmanship as demonstrated by Jacob C. I highly recommend him, if you ever need repair work on your musical instrument. Thank you Jacob C and Jacob P!

Na Hyung Choi: Quality instruments, wide selection, knowledgeable and extremely helpful staff, every time.

Dhairya Thakkar: Extremely warm and courteous staff. Really good customer service.

Marcus: Amazing music shop with friendly and helpful staff, loads of stringed instruments, lesson of all kinds. It was a lovely experience going there, and I'm gonna sign up for singing and song writing lessons... ❤️...parking is a little difficult as it's on a busy intersection, so you may need to park on some side streets.

Alexander: Great selection and probably some of the best customer service anywhere in the city. Got my first guitar here when I was 9 as well as my most recent one at 24, and the service/experience has remained consistent the entire time

Matthew Sarb (Matt S): Dusty Strings is a welcoming and wonderful store! Every time I come here, I am inspired to make music and play the harp. 5/5, without a doubt.

I've tried learning piano off and on for as long as I can remember, and I'm finally feeling more confident in my playing. He does a great job of pushing you to do more, while keeping lessons stress free and fun. Thank you, Darryl!

Nicole: Shout out to teacher Jonah! My ten year old daughter started violin in the fall and she's already playing multiple pieces. She says" I like how he lets me play independently and then adds the duet. And also that he is very nice."

Julia GY: My toddler loves the mini meter class with Jesse. He is such a fantastic instructor and extremely kind and engaged, and he's taught my daughter most of her favorite songs! It's so special to have the opportunity to expose her to live music and movement with a great teacher and other kiddos; this class is one of the highlights of our week!

Zach Patten Ferreira: and I love how she explains techniques that have drastically improved my singing.

Kyri Khouri: Hi - Our daughter has taken flute lessons with Christine at Meter this year. Christine is a wonderful teacher, she is the reason why our daughter is motivated and continues to play and practice playing the flute happily. We are very grateful for her.We have been with Meter since they opened and only have to say good things! Thank you for supporting music learning in our neighborhood! Kyri

J K: My kid has been taking lessons here for over 7 years. We have really enjoyed meter music. Great for introducing little ones to music and allowing them to find their instrument. I have seen both the more disciplined student and the beginners and both are welcome. It’s been great to be apart of the meter community and we look forward to many more years at meter.

Mirsa D: Decided to learn the guitar as an adult and Meter school has been the perfect place for it! My instructor Ricky C is beyond knowledgable about music and I see improvements in my learnings every time we meet. Shout-out to Meagan running the front desk and providing any support needed.

Yumi Pick: The teachers here are wonderful. Communication with staff is easy. Ever since Emily Stephenson has been my daughter’s piano teacher she’s improved leaps and bounds. She actually gets her to play classical music without too much complaining! Our daughter looks forward to her lessons with Emily. She is getting a well-rounded education with theory and technique.

Matthew Cary: We've been taking lessons at Meter Central District for 4 years and have been extremely happy. The front office has been super flexible and helpful in finding lesson times and scheduling.Our son's teacher, Emily Stephenson, is fabulous. He has started in piano, but as he began playing trombone in concert band at his school, she's been able to do a hybrid class and work on both instruments. He looks forward to going to music lessons, need I say more?

Jack Nelson: I'm glad I finally bit the bullet and signed up for guitar lessons after noticing this place in my neighborhood. Daniel has been a great teacher for this beginner - exceedingly patient and encouraging, with plenty of helpful tips.

Lauren Rolfe: . They are patient and easygoing with my kids, who then come home excited to practice. Meter is also really great about scheduling makeups or pivoting to online lessons when needed. Highly recommend for kids looking to try an instrument for the first time.

I A: , to being occasionally proud of what I can do. You’re amazing Emily 🙌🏽

Ileana L.: My children have been attending music lessons at Meter for 8 years…teachers have foster their love for making music while having fun. Thank you

Meany Parent & Community Outreach: Our family loves Meter Music School! Convenient location, online lessons, available, wonderful teachers.

Sage Stevens: Awesome teachers for all ages, great facilities and opportunities to perform at good venues. We've had a fantastic experience at Off The Wall

Jen D: We have had nothing but positive experiences with Off the Wall in person and online for lessons. Both our kids especially love having Matt Moore for drums - he's engaging, encouraging, and just simply rad as a teacher.

Eve Lake: Our 5 and 7 year old love their piano lessons with Tatyana. Highly recommend!

gtberg: I'm so happy to have found Off the Wall. Awesome place to not only take lessons, but having access to practice rooms is wonderful for me and those students who don't have a piano yet. Chris was very welcoming when I came by for the first time.

Sarah Mahoney: Best place in the city to learn an instrument. Plus, these top-notch practice pianos are available for use outside of lesson times. Friendly and clean environment.

Patti Feavel: I bring my dreams to Off the Wall. They seem to be just dreams. But then staff take them and help me to walk those steps to make my dream happen. My teacher, Caleb, teaches me with so much warmth, good humor, and solid advice so that I will stay encouraged as I meet each challenge and master each accomplishment. I am so impressed, while I am waiting for my lesson in the lobby, at the warmth and joy that staff extend to each child, family member, and adult aspirant. They encourage us all to revel in the joy of music. I am 67 years old and I am thrilled to fill out my life with grounded practice and all the help I need to understand what I am wanting to accomplish. And yes, my dream: I want to be able to accompany myself while I sing standards. My very secret dream is to play at a bar regularly for one hour before happy hour when there are not that many people around. I will pretend that I am Dooley Wilson in Casablanca singing "As Time Goes By."

Dan Roberts: I have had a fantastic experience with Off the Wall! I was searching for a piano teacher to expand my musical horizons - I have played brass instruments at a "strong amateur" level for many years, and wanted to learn keyboard to get better at theory and improvisation. My teacher Caleb was wonderful. He was quickly able to hone in on what I wanted out of lessons, and what I needed to do in order to get there, allowing me to set my own pace and giving me just the right level of direction, motivation and accountability. I am so much stronger musically as a result. Thanks Caleb, and thanks Off the Wall!

Mia Esther: Off The Wall School Of Music is an awesome community to be in. All the teachers are so friendly. Your music life will change for the better. I had a bad experience in Middle School but it changed forever in Highschool. Most students don’t like seeing this black and white they rather have color coded like i did from the last 5 years with being with the whole school. All the staffs are trying to spread by saying that we want our students to love music and maybe in a band. I want to thank my good friend Chris Marx.

Lillian Morris: This is heaven in a place. I have gone to camp here twice every year since I was eight and I can't express in words how magical this school is. It's amazing to be in a place where everyone is there to learn and have fun. It's obvious no one is there to hurt anyone. Everyone that works there is so fabulous I can't imagine a better place. If you can imagine this really doesn't sum up how amazingly awesome this school is. They have taught me to love music!

Amanda Capella: . We've been attending lessons for about a year or so and also participated in the summer rock band camp this year. He had so much fun! Every day was playful and exciting for him.This business has definitely shaped my son's appreciation for music, and I know it'll be a memory in his heart he'll never forget.

Kristina Simpson: We just started drumming and piano lessons for my kids and already they are learning so much!! Super friendly, energetic teachers who are clearly passionate about music.

Jake Escobar: I grew up learning at Off the Wall, and they helped me kickstart my musical career. A+, highly recommended.
