My kids enjoy learning music from the great teachers here so much. As I watch them growing in music, I greatly appreciate that we have a nice music school near by! The front desk lady, Ms. Carmen is a wonderful lady who makes every visit so pleasant.

I have two children who have taken piano lessons from Rick Smith. The quality of the lessons, care for my children’s needs, and professionalism of not only our teacher but also the company make this school stand out! Rick incorporates what they need to learn with what they WANT to play which makes practicing fun for them!

Needed some childrens violins for a charitable function and New School of Music was more than happy to help me!! I have recommended them many times for music lessons and have gotten rave reviews from parents about their teachers and operation. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for high quality teachers or instruments for themselves or for children.

I enrolled my daughter in piano lessons 2 years ago as a 6 year old. She had never taken formal lessons before and we were looking for a good fit. She began taking lessons under Rick Smith and it has been one of the best decisions for her personal growth. He has been so patient with her from day 1, encouraging her every week to do her very best, and supports her progress and successes. I have seen her grow, not just as a musician, but as an individual. She has such great self confidence and is so proud of herself when she gets a good report from Mr Rick. He encourages her to do her very best, and he stays so involved with her. Her lesson is really the highlight of her week. We are so grateful for NSM Buford and Mr Rick and plan on staying customers and clients for years to come. I recommend them to all of my friends and family looking for a music studio.

I chose New School of Music for my granddaughters guitar lessons because of their talented and educated staff and their reasonable cost. She has been taking lessons from Mr. Bjorn Anderson for over a year now. Bjorn is great with kids and instills his love of music in them.

The New School of Music is fantastic, they have friendly staff and the best teachers. I had the best experience of having Yelena Ayzenburg as my piano teacher. She is very creative and passionate. I trust her work and her advise completely. She was so patient with me and had some very unique techniques. I learned so much from her in a short period of time. Her work with me has been outstanding and I highly recommend her as a piano teacher.

About 8 years ago, I started taking voice lessons with Rick Smith, co-owner. In more recent years, I have added piano (intermittently) with Rick and violin with Anne Anderson. Two years ago I enrolled my two young granddaughters in piano lessons with Rick. I could go to other music stores much closer, but I choose to drive a pretty long distance for my granddaughters and my lessons because I feel that Rick is incomparable as a music teacher as well as the way NSM Buford is operated. Carmen, the general manager, will do back flips to make sure the customers are happy. It just doesnt get any better!

My son has been taking guitar lessons from John Pagano for a couple of years now. John is an amazing teacher, and very patient with my son (even when he doesnt practice as much as he should!) I would recommend John to everyone who wants to learn how to play music! Now my son doesnt even have to be reminded to practice, he just picks up the guitar and plays for fun!

Great, convenient location and the folks are very nice. My son has taken trumpet lessons there all school year and Don Gardo has been a great teacher for him. I was even able to get my 35 year old trumpet re-conditioned there.

I have taught piano for many years at quite a few establishments. My time teaching at New School of Music Buford has been altogether the best experience of my teaching career. Rick Smith and Robert Trocina are the best--they really care about students, but they also really care about me as a teacher. That is rare in music schools these days!

I have one in piano with Mr. Zane and one in drums with Mr. Adam. The kids get a great mix of technique and fun. Adorable and easy going FREE recitals for all ages and skill sets so we have no complaints at all.

I never thought I could improve so much in such a short amount of time! Ive been taking voice lessons with Billy Valentine and Im having a blast and learning so much. The staff here, apart from the instructors, are also very friendly and knowledgeable. This is my first experience with private voice lessons and Im glad I chose New School of Music!

Pay close attention to their 24/hr notice cancellation policy. They have a lot of students and when people cancel at the last minute it causes their system to break down. Carmen, the director for the classes and I had a miscommunication but it was cleared up. The instructor for my son is good. She takes her time with him and she’s patient.

We have two children (previously three) enrolled at the New School of Music, Buford Highway location for several years. As children we did not have the same opportunity to take formal music lessons ourselves, but as adults we knew that research has demonstrated that music training has long-term positive impact on children in many areas, e.g., verbal, cognitive, and critical thinking skills. It also has lifelong positive social and behavioral impact. We truly appreciate the above-and-beyond efforts by NSM to instill the love of music in our children and the flexibility to accommodate our family (and other families) schedules.

I have been a student at NSM since I was 17 years old. 10 years later and I came back for more lessons. I am currently taking violin lessons from Anne Anderson, who is an amazing violinist and great teacher. Shes very passionate about music and understanding when I have had little practice time. I have a crazy schedule and I am able to work it out where I can be the last lesson of the day. Mrs. Carmen, who is the front desk receptionist and handles the scheduling, is really sweet and will go above and beyond to make sure the customers leave happy. Highly recommend NSM and the teachers that teach here!

Throughout the time my son has attended the school, his skill set has improved tremendously as well as his confidence and his musical inclinations. Fausto Ojito is patient, encouraging, energetic and adapts his teaching style to my son’s needs. I highly recommend this school to anyone - parent or kid - starting their journey in music.

I purchased lessons here for my wife and son as a Christmas present for them to begin this month with high hopes. We show up for their first lesson, and are told neither of their instructors are there. One supposedly tried to contact us the day before to cancel, but I never got a phone call. We were told they had no idea why the other hadnt shown up. Nothing was done to rectify the situation, but rather the person in charge just told us repeatedly it was out of her hands and the instructors fault. Very disappointed.

This is the number one music school in North east Atlanta. Our teacher Angela Anzai, is so patient with both of my children. They have learned to love lessons and I dont have to coax them into practicing at home. If you are looking to choose a music school, choose this one!!!

Private music lessons on piano, voice, guitar, violin, and most other instruments are top notch at New School of Music in Buford, Ga. Store manager, Carmen Ezeta, provides the best customer service and is eager to help with your music lesson or instrument rental needs. Call and ask for Carmen! Youll be glad you did.
