I began playing violin at 5 years old after being introduced to it by Music House, Inc at my elementary school. I will never forget the day we received the opportunity to pick our instruments…the rest is history. Almost 20 years later, I have made it through high school and on full music scholarship to college and still love violin. The foundations that were taught here, are priceless. I will always remember the amazing concerts that I played in while at Music House, the people I met and the doors it opened in my adult life. Our Saturday class lessons and my private lessons were always such a blast to go to. Out of all the music programs and schools that one could possibly attend in and around the Chicagoland area, the Music House is the prime choice.

Both my children attend Music House and love it. My older son is 11, and does Rock Band at his school and private drum lessons. Hes having a blast and is really growing! My younger son is 7 and has started piano lessons this year. It doesnt come easily to him, but his teacher is patient and has a good sense of humor, and is teaching him how to learn, not just how to play the piano. The piano curriculum includes a lot of theory and sight reading - hes really learning the fundamentals that will carry him into whatever music he chooses to pursue later. Both boys frequently attend day camps when school is out and have a great time. My older son loves it because he gets to be a junior counselor.Last year I also took singing lessons while my son was in his drum lesson. I had a wonderful time as an adult learner and really stretched and grew!

My daughter absolutely loves her music lessons! My wife and I have witnessed our daughters growth with the violin and are quite impressed! She demonstrates patience, knowledge, and now skill.Music House also offers day camp on some of CPSs off days. My daughter was thrilled to have been signed up to have a day full of art, music lessons, and hip hop dancing! Honestly, your child will love it here! Ours surely does!

My eight and nine year old kids recently participated in a (CPS day off) day camp, and had a great time! The day was divided into several periods across various artistic disciplines...theater, dance, visual art, and music. My son was a bit reluctant before I dropped them off...not being as sold-out to all of these areas as my daughter is. But he thoroughly enjoyed his time...which I imagine is a testament to the engaging and creative staff. My kids have been taking music lessons at Music House for several years now, and weve always been incredibly happy with the caliber of instruction and the level of student expectations, balanced with the right amount of [genuine and not gratuitous] encouragement. The music instructors we have are very knowledgeable in their craft, quite skilled in developing students knowledge and skills, and enthusiastic about sharing their love of music!

My children attended their Fine Arts Camp on a day off from school and they absolutely loved it! The diversity of activities from rock band to theater to art kept them engaged and entertained and when I came to pick them up they were very sad to leave. Thats the sign of a good day. Thanks, Music House!

We started bringing our 7 year old son here initially for guitar classes and he now goes yo day camp on almost all school off dates. The sraff and owners are extremely nice and attentive to both our sons needs and our schedule. We are so happy that they offer such a variety if activities and our kid always looks forward to the next time he gets to go for a guitar class or camp. Music House has a place for almost any age group and interest.

I cant believe what these teachers can do. I attended the grand opening of the Dance Studio a while back and they had performances by students and I was blown away. Ive never seen such talent in children so young and I was in band throughout High School. (Percussion) The way they inspired the kids to not just learn an instrument but to truly find joy in the music is something to be admired and heavily applauded.I was surprised at the range of classes to choose from. Ive already signed my niece up for their Piano and Keyboard Lessons for her birthday. (Though she really wants to check out the School of Rock. Ill let her parents deal with that! LOL)I couldn’t be more impressed and I truly wish I had a place like this in my neighborhood when I was a child!

Music House is amazing! Our daughter has learned to play violin, has excelled, and loves it. The staff clearly loves music and loves kids. They have very effective teaching methods which make it fun for the kids. There are lots of opportunities for performances. My husband has also taken guitar lessons and feels like hes learned a lot in a short period of time. I would recommend Music House to anyone!

Really wonderful classes, teachers place to learn and have fun!!!!Have been taking my boys here for over 10 years and has been one of the best parts of our lives!Just read the other nice reviews, and one poor one. Wasnt going to say cause it embarrassing to me.Dont want to argue with Organs ‎ - Oct 26, 2010s experience either. Different times and people often experience the same things very differently. Richard IS sometimes a bad businessman, but I cant say enough good things about him!In 2008, when I had no job and could not pay, Mr. Richard Trumbo, Marcy their teacher and Music House let my boys continue their lessons free for a year until I could pay again. Since then have not even asked me to pay them back. (still plan to pay them back someday when I can, but Music House doesnt require it)Another maybe poor business decision by Richard was to spend his time and energy on Breast Cancer Awareness. He even had my boys make up some Music House/Ping Ribbon tie-dyed shirts. (I still like wearing mine :) Anyway funds for a good cause is nice, but this program had an unexpected side effect of saving my wifes life. There is no question without the additional awareness this program specific efforts generated her cancer would not have been found as soon or treated as quickly. As it turned out her cancer was malignant and removed in time for complete full recovery!!! ^_^So I just had to add that while Richard Trumbo may be forced to struggle with his efforts to keep a small business open in Chicago during these times, I am a very grateful customer for all his efforts!!!
