Great place learn to play music. Very nice and helpful staff and owners.
Both of my kids have been going to School of Rock for over a year and absolutely love it! There has never been a day when they don’t want to go. The instructors do a great job making it fun yet educational and my kids love being able to choose the songs they want to learn. I’ve recommended School of Rock to close friends (that have also loved it) and I will continue to recommend them to anyone looking for a great music school.
School Of Rock on Jackson is an amazing establishment. You will be greeted by a warm smile every time and you will have professional instructors. Your lesson will be tailored to your needs and interests. I love School of Rock!
Lame and bad business practices. 🙁
School of Rock

Such an amazing, professional, accepting, & FUN environment for students.
Everyone here is so welcoming here! I was able to sign up for a trial lesson with the general manager Josh. When I arrived I was warmly greeted by Samantha who gave us a tour of the newly renovated facility. Our lesson was with Scott and he left a lastly impression on my child. I would definitely recommend checking them out.
Great atmosphere, the staff really seem to care about music and their students. The Little Wings program is awesome and run by very cool teachers.

If you’re thinking about getting into music, DSRP rocks. The staff are super kind and willing to work with any level of musician. I had never held a guitar prior to my first class and they make approaching music a lot less intimidating than I thought it would be.
Ray is my guitar teacher and I would highly recommend him. He has given me insight into music theory, but made the topic manageable for me with my available time to play. Highly recommend DSRP is you’re looking to get into music.
This state-of-the-art facility is efficiently and professionally run and maintained, and all current health and safety guidelines are well in place and practiced. It’s a work space that any artist and technician can walk into with confidence, and know that whatever the goal at hand is, be it lessons or recording sessions, the outcome is bound to be successful.
My son has been going to the Detroit School of Rock and Pop since he was 7 years old. He is now a senior in high school and an incredible musician and singer as a result of the amazing jobs
His teachers and mentors did at DSRP.
His band has played all over the city and he’s experienced live broadcasts and wonderful events full of interesting people. The support he received through this program not only helped him grow artistically, but as a person as well. Shout out to Julie, Rocco, Jason, and Sherry for helping to guide Cole in his musical career. He has loved every minute of it and we have too.
God bless this awesome school!!!
Old building, but the people there are beyond awesome! 😀
Attended the Ribbon cutting for the Billman Pavilon this afternoon. This is a beautiful and much needed addition to The College of Music. Even more impressive than the visible additions are the things that make the infrastructure State of the Art: ventilation and safe air quality, magnificent acoustics, more space and ample space for all activities.
The MSU campus is very lovely, and this facility was beyond my expectations. It makes the UM music building look subpar.
This is one of the older, traditional buildings in the old part of the Campus. Mostly office and rehearsal spaces, but Cook Recital Hall is the scene of a lot of student and faculty performances.
Undergoing a lot of updates and expansion. The facilities are out of date and all need a big update. May increase score to a 5 when the refurb and expansion is complete. The programs they offer are great but like all schools the program you want may or may not be what you want.
My Fiance goes here and it seems like her masters program is top notch.
My experience with the admissions department was very frustrating and disappointing. I auditioned for the Woodwind Specialist MM program. I received a letter from the graduate school at Michigan State saying I was admitted. I even received the same letter in snail mail. A week later I received a letter from the music department saying that I wasn’t admitted for the Woodwind Specialist program, but they would admit me for the clarinet performance MM if I desired. When I called asking why I received the first letter from the graduate school, the man seemed confused and said I [didn’t] receive a letter because it wasn’t in the records. Why would I make up receiving a letter that I was admitted? He reiterated their policy that the letter from the music department comes first. I said that obviously, their letter had NOT come first. When I emailed a copy of the letter I received from the graduate school saying I was admitted to both the associate director and the director, I received NO response. My problem was NOT with the faculty’s decision. My problem is with the administrative issues. It does not speak highly of the university and does not motivate me to spend 30K on tuition. Simple empathy or an apology of some sort would have gone a long way. Instead, I am sadly writing this Google review to tell you about my experience.

My family has had a wonderful experience with the hummingbird music together class. My children 2 &1 have a new appreciation for beats and love going to class. I would recommend for all ages!!!
For all guitar repairs. A big shout out to Dave (Master Luthier at GP Music Academy). Dave has worked on several of my guitars and I have been impressed with the consistent quality of his work. Most recently, I had a guitar that was unplayable. Dave turned it into one of my favorites.
Awesome staff. My daughter LOVES and looks forward to her piano lesson each week.
My kids have been taking music lessons for few years now at Grosse Pointe Music Academy. Since then my wife and I have noticed improvements with their musical performance and self confidence. Thanks and Great job!
I attempted to take singing lessons here. Unfortunately, on the day my lesson was scheduled, there was a power outage, so it was postpones. Now obviously this was out of their control, but they told me that they would call to reschedule and never did. We attempted to contact them numerous times about it, and they never got back to us.
The lessons could be the best in the city, but if they’re this difficult to work with…
The J-RO School of Music
Address: 4084 John R Rd, Troy, MI 48085 , Mingelchaur , Michigan , United States
I have heard nothing but good things about this school. I know the owner, he is well manured, patient, kind hearted, and has a passion for his craft. If you are looking for a great teacher and tutor he is your guy.
My guitar skills have improved greatly as a result of being a student of J-Ro School of Music. Josh has an enthusiastic and detailed approach to music instruction, which is an asset in propelling a student to the next skill level musically.
Been getting lessons for 3 years. Love it
Classes are good but sometimes you can’t hear yourself even with the headphones as some instrumentalist will be playing acoustic instruments
We’ve been attending for several months now, underwhelmed by our child’s progress. Appears to be partially attributable to poor management
Canton Music Academy
Address: 5880 N Canton Center Rd #425, Canton, MI 48187 , Mingelchaur , Michigan , United States
My daughter loves band but not the instrument she first chose, so we made the decision to switch to saxophone and catch up as best as we could over the summer. My sincere thanks to Canton Music Academy and especially Nick for making sure she got off to such a great start!
We found GPMA about two years ago. After receiving our free, no-strings-attached guitar lesson, we were hooked! Everything about this place exuded a feel of warmth and professionalism right from the start. Both my daughters take guitar and piano lessons here, and we couldn’t be happier. The instructors invest in getting to know their students, and they make learning how to play an instrument fun. The receptionist is extremely friendly and keeps the place welcoming and organized. The location is also very convenient. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who not only wants to learn music, but who also wants to love music as well.
I’m just starting my 3rd session of Music Together at the Grosse Pointe Music Academy in Canton. We have thoroughly enjoyed our experiences! My boys are very shy, so getting them around other kids and involved has taken a lot of creativity. The music together classes are wonderful – playful, energizing – the kids are really able to participate as much or as little as they want. My kids love the listen to the music at home and in the car, and often sing and dance along with the songs. Our teacher is very engaging! For anyone with toddlers or preschoolers, I HIGHLY recommend this program.
It was nice the guitar teacher was knowledgeable and kind. Check it out if kids want music lessions
The secretary it’s not friendly at all.
Interlochen Center for the Arts
Address: 4000 J. Maddy Pkwy, Interlochen, MI 49643 , Mingelchaur , Michigan , United States
Nice facility on a beautiful campus. Sound was outstanding!
The location is beautiful. The cabins for the overnight campers are very sweet. The whole energy on campus is so welcoming and easy. I’m looking forward to seeing what’s in store in the next few weeks for my camper.
Great place to perform
Far from perfect but a great arts camp overall
This is a fine Campground to camp at. Plenty of sites available and nice proximity to Downtown Traverse City. Don’t forget to stop at Bud’s down the Road!
Was here for Summer Camp as a part of the Creative Writing Program. The cabins were incredibly outdated and dirty (the bathrooms inside the cabins were constantly prone to flooding and were the dirtiest places I had ever been in). Luckily, many of the main campus facilities were much cleaner. The classes were also very enjoyable and were a good place to meet likeminded peers. The living conditions, however, were so atrocious that they took away from the overall experience. The only other thing of note is the school mascot being “The Fighting Blueberries”, which is hilarious. Overall, programs and courses are good, but cabins should be updated.
We were very disappointed with Interlochen’s lack of basic precautions around the health of the campers this summer (of 2022).
Unlike other arts camps we are familiar with Interlochen did no proactive or preventative testing. Other than test campers who requested testing they appeared to take no health precautions what-so-ever.
Two campers in our daughters cabin tested positive after requested testing because of their concern around exposure to other campers who tested positive.
None of the other campers in this cabin were notified. No testing was performed for others in the cabin even one of the campers who presented a persistent cough.
We know from discussions with other parents that other arts camps were being more proactive and taking the health of their campers, especially vulnerable ones, more seriously. In the future we will look to those institutions.
Brothers Osborne did a good concert but everything about the venue sucked. From no alcohol to no smoking. Anywhere during the event. Reconsider if your looking to go have fun at a concert!!!
Dixboro Music Academy

My children and I had with a wonderful experience at Dixboro Music Academy!
Our teachers, David, Silver, Charlie and Tyler were highly knowledgeable and incredibly inspiring. Their passion for music shone through in every session, created an environment where learning was a joyous experience. Their dedication to their craft and their ability to convey complex concepts in a simple and enjoyable manner truly defines their exceptional teaching skills. Their guidance and expertise not only helped us improve our technical skills but also deepened our appreciation for various musical styles and genres and of course, our love for music. We were encouraged to explore our creativity while fostering a sense of confidence and personal growth within us. We have so much appreciation for the whole team for their outstanding commitment to providing top-notch education and music instruction. Our time with Dixboro has been invaluable, and I WHOLEHEARTEDLY recommend their services to anyone seeking a positive and enriching musical experience.
I’m so very happy Dixboro music academy is now open! Great teachers and professional staff. I couldn’t be happier
Good experience at Dixboro music. Super convenient to schedule different options for music lessons for my daughter. Easy to reschedule. Owner is very accommodating, friendly, and organized.

Excellent staff. Excellent swag! Everyone is super nice
Nice little store. Has all the necessities for a summer of arts camp. I wish the apparel selection was a bit more up to date, but overall the shop serves its purpose.
Beautiful campus with woods, lake and state park. Caring, kind staff. Cabins, dorms, amphitheatres, multiple auditoriums. Convenient parking including handicap.
Very nice and unique. I wish I would have bought the coffee mug that said “# is a sharp not a hashtag”
