In anticipation of my retirement, I decided to take piano lessons. I was untrained and at the beginning, it was humbling and painful. The instructors at the Music Studio mentored me through this awkward start and three years plus later I am enjoying the learning process of piano. I enjoy practising and have a repertoire of music. Learning music is like learning another language.

Thanks Ed! Just wanted to thank you and let you know how happy I am that we discovered your amazing Music Studio those many years ago. It has been great positive experience on all fronts: the teachers, the different offering of lessons and atmosphere of your school. Bogdana has encouraged my girls to succeed in the RCM exams and you have helped my son learn an appreciation for music. We thank you for all those amazing performance opportunities you work so hard at organizing in the community because of the experience it gives the children in performing in public and the confidence it builds. Keep up the great work!

My two boisterous boys have been taking piano lessons at The Music Studio for over a year now. They each quickly went from playing scales with one finger to playing somewhat complicated pieces with both hands. Aside from being pleased with the development of their skills, I am grateful that their piano teachers have instilled in my sons a positive attitude about piano. They both look forward to their lessons and approach piano not as work but as a creative outlet. At home, they have started making their own music and sing along to their compositions. I would recommend The Music Studio to anyone.

I want my sons to love music and have fun making it. I enrolled them in Kidzrock so that they could learn how to play in an ensemble, be exposed to different instruments, and have a fun time making music with other kids. It worked! They are learning a lot and they love being in a "rock band"!

We strongly believe that what they learnt at the Music Studio greatly contributed to their ability to get out there and perform fearlessly in front of a live audience.

I approached The Music Studio in 2008 because I wanted my 4 year-old daughter to learn how to play the piano.  Her teacher at The Music Studio (Ed Lettner) fostered her enthusiasm and skills for playing piano.  Eight years later, my daughter and also my son continue their piano lessons at The Music Studio.  I appreciate how their lessons are customized to their musical preferences and different learning styles.  They both remain enthusiastic and are well on their way to becoming musicians.  I would recommend The Music Studio to anyone who is interested in providing their child with an opportunity to learn piano and develop an enthusiasm for music.

My sons both take lessons at The Music Studio and we are very much impressed at the level of expertise and professionalism of the musicians who teach them. They are both preparing for music exams at a comfortable pace, while continuing to learn fun, contemporary and popular pieces along the way. Communication with their teachers is always open and consistent. The Music Studio has fostered their love for music and has provided them with unique musical experiences that we haven’t found elsewhere, like the opportunity to perform in front of live audiences in different venues and settings.

I was so impressed with the concert. I admire how friendly you (Ed) are, and how you organize and run the concert is so smooth and pleasant. You have a way of making people feel so welcome. The Music Studio staff are amazing! Thank you so much.

Ed and his team at The Music Studio have been amazing with my special needs daughter. She was desperate to sing, but we had spent years trying to find the right venue for her. Ed and Shelby, her teacher, have done wonders with her. She looks forward to the next recital and talks of nothing else, practices every day. It has transformed her life. At all times Ed and his staff are consistent, committed and take each and every student very seriously; recitals were organized and hosted professionally. I would recommend The Music Studio to anyone who loves music and wants to learn in a serious yet supportive, inclusive environment.

Our son has thoroughly enjoyed the experience of starting on the piano, thanks to Ed's engaging teaching and encouraging demeanour.  Ed's patience and willingness to be flexible has cultivated our son's interest in music, moving him from loving both the Mario Underwater Theme Song to Moonlight Sonata all in a few months! Now, that takes skill!
