Testimonials

On 10/10/2025 Charles Riley had this to say:
I started violin/fiddle lessons about 5 years ago with Mark Davis. It was a great choice. Mark is a master of string instruments and he teaches a variety. His knowledge of the history of music adds an additional dimension of interest. I am retired now and always wanted to learn violin. Though he generally teaches much younger students who can learn much more easily, he is very patient with me.

On 10/9/2025 Maddy Southall had this to say:

On 10/7/2025 Charles Phillips had this to say:

On 9/7/2025 Andrew Czaplicki had this to say:
This is an excellent space for musicians to practice or take lessons. As a parent of young musicians, I appreciate how accommodating it is for observers. The studio offers comfortable seating, a coffee station, and convenient parking. It’s also a great place to catch up on emails, get some work done, or simply relax and enjoy the music. We love coming here every week!

On 3/27/2024 Justeen Pierce had this to say:
Rob is awesome! He has been apart of our 9 year old daughter's viola journey since a music instrument demo where he showcased string instruments. She has never played any instruments before and was inspired by the Viola's sound. He helped her find the right size to try it out, all with the greatest customer service for a budding musician. Even when she was in group lessons and wasn't comfortable with the instrument, we could call him and he would patiently help her. We discontinued the group lessons because she was so passionate and wanted more. Rob was the perfect choice and she loves her weekly lessons. There's no teeth pulling for her practice homework, either. He is knowledgeable, friendly, and so kind. He makes it fun and really builds confidence. We highly recommend Rob and Soundpost to everyone! Plus the space is amazing and very cool. It's a fantastic place to be a part of!!
