★★★★★Amber AngellMy son has participated in several different classes offered by Greater Richmond school of Music. Our first introduction was the Guitar Fundamentals summer camp last summer. It was an excellent introduction to the instrument and GRSM, with an extremely uplifting and welcoming atmosphere that made learning fun and easy. He then participated in a session of Guitar Trio. Again, this was such a great experience. During the 10 week session not only did he solidify the basics that he had learned, but he was also able to build friendships and make music with peers. Currently, he is taking private lessons and is having the best possible experience I could have hoped for. Lessons are tailored to him to keep interest while also reinforcing correct technique. We plan on being with GRSM long term and suggest it to others as often as we can.
★★★★★Robert Dolghiu🌟 Review for Greater Richmond School of Music (GRSM) 🌟 This is our second year with GRSM, where my son William (a 3rd grader at SMCS) has been taking private piano lessons. His teacher, Robert, has been absolutely wonderful—very skilled, patient, and friendly. William genuinely enjoys his lessons and looks forward to them each week, which speaks volumes about the positive learning environment GRSM provides. I also deeply appreciate the dedication and engagement of the owners, Hayes and Rebecca Cummings. Their commitment to the school and its students is evident in everything they do. The end-of-year recitals are a highlight for our family, offering a welcoming stage for the children to share their progress and celebrate their hard work. GRSM has been a fantastic place for William to grow musically, and we’re grateful for the supportive and inspiring community they’ve built. Highly recommended!
★★★★★Kelly CGreater Richmond School of Music is a wonderful opportunity to learn about music and instruments. Both of my children have learned more about music and are developing their own taste for instruments they enjoy.
★★★★★Lindsay RogersWe've been really happy with GRSM for my son and daughter's piano lessons! I'm especially impressed by their current teacher's focus on improvement while also teaching to each child's age/ability, attention span, and interests. My older child has participated in several recitals and they've been great experiences-- very encouraging and empowering while focused on a growth mindset. The owners are very communicative, organized, and kind. Highly recommend!
★★★★★Tracie JonesWe are new to GRSM this year and have had nothing but great experiences. My son has been learning guitar and his teacher has done an excellent job of working with him 1-on-1. The prices are great and all of the instructors that I have seen come into the lobby are great with kids. My son's instructor has been great at keeping the lessons relevant to his skill level and when we had bad weather keeping us from coming in person, online lessons went well. I definitely recommend GRSM for anyone interested. I am even thinking of enrolling next fall myself!
