I've been to 2 Eddie Lam Open Mics at this school and the space is great! They fit a lot of people in the main hall and it's the most out-of-the-ordinary open mic to perform at. People are there for the music only, not like at a bar or restaurant with many distractors. The owners, Sarah and Chris, are great people with a very fun personality. I hope this place thrives for years on end!

I wanted to start learning piano in person and they responded within a day with availability options. I have felt welcomed in the building and everyone is very friendly. It feels great to have one on one piano instruction and encourage my practice.

Now, this is a story all about how I mastered the strings, let me tell you how I’d like to take a minute, just sit right there To explain how I’m shredding with cash to spare. Just hummin' along, in a musical haze, In my headphones was where I spent most of my days Zonin' out, waxin', bored as a fool Before I found Pleasant Mountain Music School Then a couple of teachers who were up to some good Started making music in my neighborhood I hit one little power chord and my mind went 'Whoa!' I’m headed to Pleasant Mountain, to watch my talent grow!" I walked down the block and as I drew near The sound of music was all I could hear If anything I could say that this place was rare I thought, "This is THE spot where they actually care!" I practiced guitar at seven or eight And I yelled to the teacher, 'These scales sound great!' I looked at my kingdom, I was finally there To shred on my guitar with a mountain of flair. Tl;dr: I've been going to PMM for over 3 years and they have become my first recommendation for anyone looking (or not looking) to learn something musical! I have tried a number of the different classes and clinics they offer and have had a blast in each! The teachers are a talented, passionate, and supportive group of working musicians who provide an environment that allows people to come as they are and leave a little bit more skillful!

I've been learning from Pleasant Mountain's vocal/guitar instructor, Richard, since before he arrived here. He has incredible technical knowledge; not only can he help you safely and effectively expand your range (mine now goes an octave higher than before!), but he will transpose any song into a key that supports your voice type and accompany you on guitar/piano. I started singing as an adult and used to experience so much vocal tension that I couldn't sing for more than a minute without stopping in pain. With Richard's support, I am now able to sing for 45 minutes straight. I highly, highly recommend him as a vocal instructor! Also, if you're looking for opportunities to perform in front of an audience, Pleasant Mountain Music is wonderfully supportive of all levels and ages wanting to take the stage at their recitals and open mics.

I've taken vocal lessons with Richard at a different studio and he's by far the best teacher I've ever had! You can bring in any song and he'll learn it in -5 seconds and immediately make you a better vocalist. Highly recommend him! 10/10

I am really enjoying my lessons with Richard, he is very knowledgeable. And very adept at understanding how best to help me with the vocal outcomes I am seeking to achieve. Please feel free to share this feedback with Richard, I am really enjoying the lessons.

Todd T.

Thank you for reaching out. I went into my first lesson unsure of how I would be and by the end felt good about myself, all thanks to Adrianna. Really appreciate the experience I had and, as an adult learner especially, how relaxing it was.

Owen M.

Marco was a great instructor. Thank you [I] really appreciate your programming for our community!

Joshua S.

Monday had a wonderful time (in class) and was a big fan of Paula after just one lesson!

Sean R.

Thank you so much for your detailed email, your efficiency and your quick responses.  You made everything so easy.  You are great to work with. Happy coincidence: Teacher Paula is very familiar with the “We Will Rock You” musical because she auditioned for this show a couple of years ago for Theatre Under the Stars.  Meant to be.  Thanks so much!

I love this place and how much my child has grown musically with them. She takes one on one classes for singing, piano and now guitar and is also with their musical theatre ensemble and absolutely loves it. My daughter has won many competitions with the help of her instructor, whom she sees as a very dear friend. I can’t say enough great things about this place.

Nadia D.

I take lessons with George and have already learned a ton after only a month. He gives great feedback, has tons of good advice, helps me set achievable goals, and moves through the lessons at a quick but comfortable pace.

Ryan B.

Heavy Metal Ensemble is a lot of fun, and a great way to practice singing in a group. It has helped me with some of the nerves around singing in front of people in a chill environment

Maverick T.

Loving the class [Metal Choir] so far, and very glad that I signed up. Cheers, Alexandra

Alexandra J.

Hey George, hope you had a great Christmas. Just wanna thank you for everything this year. I’ve learned more with a couple months of lessons than I did for the past almost 2 years by myself!

Felipe A.

Kelsey is an incredible teacher who brings a wealth of knowledge and skill to her vocal instruction. As an adult student, Kelsey was supportive and encouraging in helping me build confidence and move through the vulnerability of singing. She helped me improve my technique and vocal range, which has greatly enhanced my enjoyment in singing. I am so grateful to Kelsey and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a vocal instructor.

Jennifer H

It’s been so fun and I have learned a lot in the few lessons I have had with Kelsey she is AMAZING and I love her !!! We have a lot of fun at our lessons!!

Ashley B.

Just started heavy metal voice lessons with Kelsey and I’m learning a lot! Booking and communication with the Team has been super pleasant and easy. Definitely recommend!

Thomas P.

Sarah is a very friendly, patient and encouraging instructor. I’m an adult student and have been enjoying my lessons to gently get back into more structured playing. I’ve also had lessons with Letizia. Both are highly capable and knowledgeable teachers!

Mardi H.

Aden loved the recital Sarah and us too. You and your team did a wonderful job making it fun. I loved the informality of it while keeping the holiday spirit alive ? You and your partners are doing something special getting these kids to love music. I see that in Aden and we’re fortunate to have you supporting her. Thank you!

Wyle B.

I cant reiterate enough just how valuable I found my time with Nadim and George. The lessons with both of them have helped give me the confidence to pursue a career in music! Without their guidance I wouldn’t be on the path I’m on right now!

Kal V.

Congratulations on a so very successful winter concert yesterday. Thank you for pouring out your hearts to these young talented music lovers. It is a pure enjoyment seeing them shine and rock the stage. I am very impressed with everything, from the performance, to the venue decoration, to the program rundown and music selection and the time control….the list can go on and on. As a mom who always play a giver role, being able to sit back, relax and enjoy that one hour of beautiful music is the best gift in this season. Thank you PMM. Love you guys!!

Charis C

Sarah is an amazing piano teacher. Our 9yo loves his lessons, and he’s always eager to practice for the next one so he can show her his songs. Highly recommended!

Chris C.

My practice sessions at PMM are great; the room is clean, organized and spacious, and I could hardly hear a peep from the other lesson rooms

Kristina C.

My daughter has been taking voice and piano lessons with Chersea for about two years and I have seen her bloom into an amazing artist. She is continually progressing in her skills and performance abilities, she is gently encouraged and challenged every time she sees Chersea. She truly is the best music teacher to my daughter and we truly love her and appreciate her for everything she does for our daughter. We highly recommend anyone looking for music lessons to consider Pleasant Mountain Music.

Vanessa P.

I have been a student of Sarah’s for the past three years and she has made my piano learning experience so fun! She makes every class a safe learning environment where I’m not afraid to make mistakes. I get to choose what kind of music I get to play and it helps me stay motivated to keep practicing.

Sarah D.

PMM had been recommended to us as a great place to introduce our 9yr old son to piano and I would like to pass on this recommendation to anyone looking for music lessons. Sarah is our teacher and she’s very skilled, has great energy, is supportive, patient and makes learning super fun!!

Stephanie C.

At first I thought my daughter Alana might be too tired after a whole day of school for private lessons, but George always goes above and beyond in all of our lessons. George is truly remarkable, it would be great to let other people know how amazing he is. ?

Cheryl F.

Chersea is not only an extremely talented and energetic vocal and music teacher, she is so admirably devoted to identifying and supporting her students’ to pursue their own particular passions. We are so grateful for the years during which our daughter has learned from and worked with her.

Karen C.

My son has been with PMM since it began and every single lesson has been an amazing experience for him. He has learned so much, not just musically, but also to become a more confident, well-rounded individual. Chersea and PMM and a delight to work with for both students and their families. Thank you so much for all the gifts you share!!!

Erin C.

We have loved our experience with PMM! My daughter looks forward to her voice lessons with Chersea every week. Chersea cares deeply about her students and works hard to help them succeed.
