From the reviews
I've been seeing Dennis for guitar lessons for the last 19 years. He's been the only guitar teacher I've had and I have to say I feel very lucky for that. His knowledge on guitar and music theory is so incredibly immense, I couldn't imagine having lessons with anyone else.
We visit this store for the guitar lessons that my son takes now for two years. We are very satisfied with the lessons (thanks to the wonderful teacher) and how all is organized. This school could even provide online lessons allowing my son to continue while on vacation abroad.
My daughter is taking a flute lessons and been going wonderful. Attentive and friendly service from the front desk.
I had a very pleasant experience at this Music & Arts in McLean, from the moment I entered the store, to my final purchase! I was greeted by a lovely young woman who introduced herself as Katherine. She was quite knowledgeable in responding to my inquiries regarding instrument purchases and rentals.
Lessons at Music & Arts
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Music & Arts. If you're signing up a beginner (or restarting yourself), a quick call ahead answers the three things that matter: which instruments they teach, whether the schedule has openings at the time you actually need, and what a first lesson costs. There's no wrong first guitar — a good teacher will happily work with whatever you walk in with, and a shop that teaches usually keeps affordable starter instruments and rentals on hand for exactly this reason.
