Quick, short-form reviews, gathered from additional sources.

Guitar Lessons

Our son has been a student at Studio for the past 3 years in their guitar programs. It has been a fantastic experience for him and he absolutely loves it. He's even moved into one of their rock band programs and is having a fantastic time applying his music theory to practice. A wonderful environment to learn and grow. His instructor Dave is amazing. We only wish he started sooner with his lessons ... Show More

Vocal Lessons & Summer Camps

My daughter has been coming to The Music Studio the last 4 years for voice lessons with Wendy Dobson. I can’t say enough about the studio and the positive influence that it has had on my daughter. Her vocal range has grown and improved so much. And given her to confidence to get up in front of people to perform. Which the Music Studio offers regularly to its students. She has also participated in the Musical Theatre summer camps, which was a lot fun. Thank you Ed and Wendy!! Fantastic Studio ... Show More

Piano Lessons

My two boisterous boys have been taking piano lessons at The Music Studio for over a year now. They each quickly went from playing scales with one finger to playing somewhat complicated pieces with both hands. Aside from being pleased with the development of their skills, I am grateful that their piano teachers have instilled in my sons a positive attitude about piano. They both look forward to their lessons and approach piano not as work but as a creative outlet. At home, they have started making their own music and sing along to their compositions. I would recommend The Music Studio to anyon ... Show More

Violin Lessons

This is an excellent music school, which we have been attending for several years. The quality of instructors is very high and for children, it is an ideal school to start learning music. In addition to the classes, there are many opportunities to perform at either formal recitals, or more casual "coffee shop" style venues to ease youngsters into the stage experience. The owner, Ed, is always extremely accommodating and genuinely passionate about music. Our current violin instructor, Carolina, is also excellent; we take lessons every week ... Show More

Children's Class & Vocal Lessons

From an early age, Nicholas showed a keen interest in music, and my husband and I participated in a number of song circles before discovering the Music Studio in September 2015. We couldn't be happier with our decision to enrol Nicholas in a group class! From the very beginning, we were met with enthusiasm, and were impressed by the community that Ed has built around a mutual love for music. Nicholas has gone on to take private lessons (vocal and piano), and the encouragement he's received from his teachers, and the progress he's made as a result of their dedication is truly amazing and appreciated. I still can't believe he "walked up on the big stage" (Nicholas' words) at the tender age of four, pink ukulele in hand, for his first recital and actually sang! We are so thankful for the care Nicholas continues to receive at the Music Studio, and look forward to many more years of making memories with them through music. I would recommend the Music Studio to anyone and everyone ... Show More

It's a lovely environment for budding musicians! Ed is very dedicated and enthusiastic and the informal monthly recitals he organizes are a real treat. My daughter also loves Brenna, her vocal teacher, who has been nothing but fabulous. Would definitely recommend.

We love the Music Studio! My 7 year old daughter has been going there for almost a year. She has an incredible teacher named Lisa who makes learning fun and at the same time ensures that my restless 7 year old focuses enough to progress in her piano techniques. The atmosphere in the studio is also very inspiring and the owner, Ed, is very friendly and accommodating ... Show More

My son and daughter have been taking piano lessons at the music studio for the past 6 months and we couldn’t be happier. Ed and Claire have been fantastic teachers. They provide a fun, comfortable learning environment for both my children and make coming to lessons each week enjoyable. My husband and I love the monthly performance opportunities.

Professional, caring and very engaged teachers and director. Our 11 year old daughter loves her music lessons and looks forward to her sessions every week.

Teachers are patient and kind, there is schedule flexibility when needed, but mostly I value the community aspect as the kids get to play a variety of venues in the city and learn from each experience!

Piano Lessons

My children have been taking piano lessons at the Music Studio for more than 4 years and we are happy. The owner Ed is very attentive and accommodating, he is also a patient teacher with my active boy since he was 6. My daughter enjoys her music class since she was 5 and is now in piano classes with Bogdana and Greg. They both like the annual recital at the Assembly Hall as well as the monthly ones at Java Joe. I'd recommend to anyone that are interested in taking music lessons and understand they offer a wide range classes ... Show More

Piano & Violin Lessons

My two children have been attending the studio for the past few years. Separate teachers. Separate instruments. One constant we have come to enjoy and appreciate is the relaxed and friendly environment, the pleasantness of the teachers and the accommodations that have been extended to us around our super busy and unpredictable schedules. Attending the sessions are always a good end to a school day. Or a positive addition to the weekend. We value this studio as part of our community and it’s always uplifting to see the happy faces and hear the sweet voices of the children who attend the studio. Thanks to Ed and his team we have been able to manage during his unprecedented period of crisis. Thanks ever so much ... Show More

Piano, Vocal & Ukulele Lessons

We moved our daughter to The Music Studio for piano and vocal lessons in March. Ed was very accommodating in finding teachers who could work with our availability even though it was part way through the winter/spring session. Despite most of her lessons being online due to the pandemic lockdown, she has progressed leaps and bounds in both vocal and piano. Her teachers, Ali and Olenka, have made lessons fun and inspiring and we’ve watched our daughter’s enthusiasm for music grow over these past months. We no longer need to remind her to practice; she wants to practice and does so multiple times a day. Our daughter also loves participating in the monthly (online for now) concerts. We highly recommend The Music Studio ... Show More

Piano Lessons

We began piano lessons for my two children at the beginning of 2020, and they thoroughly enjoyed them right from the start. When Covid hit, the studio immediately began easy and convenient online lessons, which provided my children with some routine and structure amongst all the disruption and uncertainty. They continue to enjoy their weekly lessons and have learned a lot in only a short amount of time. They also really enjoy the monthly virtual performances, which have been wonderful for them to perform without feeling any pressure, and also a way for them to socialize with other budding musicians. We look forward to continuing lessons and returning to live performances as soon as possible ... Show More

Drum Lessons

My 13- year old son has been learning drums, vocals and rock band at The Music Studio since 2018. When we moved to Mississauga, my son was a Grade 5(Rockschool) drummer. We tried almost all music schools in Mississauga and my son would come out dissatisfied with the teaching and teacher. Then we tried The Music School, which was far from our place. What tipped the scale in favor of The Music Studio was their expertise, variety and professionalism. Though no music school in GTA teaches the Rockschool program, Ed accepted the challenge and guided my son through to excel at the program. He is now preparing for Grade 6 Rockschool examination under Ed's guidance. The vocal's teacher and rock band teacher are equally proficient at their craft and understand the needs of the students to personalize the learning. My son spends 2 hours at The Music Studio every week and I can see the difference in his musical skills and interests ... Show More

We really have enjoyed our experience with The Music Studio. My son started piano lessons during the pandemic.

Piano Lessons

Ed is a great teacher. He structures the lesson challenging enough to keep my kid interested but not so difficult that he might give up. The school also offers many performance opportunities from the monthly mini recital to the annual formal recital for all students.

Our children have been attending classes at the Music Studio for about four years now - our son is taking piano lessons with Ed and our daughter is taking piano and vocal lessons with Brenna. The instructors are passionate, very knowledgeable, extremely patient and work very hard to bring out the best from their students. The children are always looking forward to attending the lessons. Not only have they improved their musical acumen in leaps and bounds but they have developed confidence in performing in front of live audiences thanks to the many programs/recitals, community concerts that the Music Studio organizes on regular basis. We would recommend the Music Studio to anyone ... Show More

Vocal, Piano & Trumpet Lessons

The Music Studio’s teachers, lessons and various programs are fantastic! They keep all of our children - 3 kids ranging from elementary to high school - engaged in Music education. They all enjoy and look forward to their lessons. The Music Studio’s approach to teaching music comes first from enjoyment and then if you child wants to become serious that is supported as well. Whatever your child’s goals are they are well supported at the Music Studio. Also, due to the pandemic they quickly changed to online instruction without a negative impact on learning. Music Studio lessons is an activity that continued to be maintained when so many others were cancelled. Many thanks to Ed and team!! ... Show More

Vocal & Piano Lessons

My son and I have been taking private vocal, drums and ensemble classes at the Music Studio for the past 7 years. I had tried many different music schools and am a music teacher myself, so I feel that I am very particular about where we study music. The Music Studio is by far the best music school in Etobicoke and probably anywhere. The teachers are very well-qualified and of high caliber. The owner, Ed, goes out of his way to provide many performance opportunities for the students as well as a warm, welcoming atmosphere at the studio. He is also very actively involved in the local community which is very nice to see and be a part of. The whole musical experience here has been very positive and therapeutic for us and we couldn’t imagine going anywhere else.. ... Show More

OUR KIDS review of The Music Studio

our take

The Music Studio has been teaching children and adults for over 30 years. With an equal focus on a broad range of musical styles, students can participate in one or more of many structured programs. Music in Motion is for the youngest learners, which introduces kids to the theory of music in a fun and stimulating way. Lessons are offered in-person and online, and most instruments are available to be taught. What’s unique about The Music Studio is their range of specific programs that allow everyone the opportunity to learn music, not just those who already have the skills and talent. Their innovative Connecting Through Music program allows students with special needs to learn life skills through music. Another truly original program is the research-based Seniors Connecting Through Music program, which helps improve well-being for older students. There’s so much more than traditional lessons at The Music Studio: students can participate in bands, theatre, songwriting, and live performances. Owner Ed Lettner is a repository of music information, so there’s so much students can learn from him and his staff of highly-qualified and professionally-trained teachers.
