This was our music camp that I hosted together with my church, Kure Beach First Baptist Church. It was a great time and the campers learned a lot and they had a ball!

Here are some of the performances of our students during our Spring Recital. They were all ages and levels, the first one had only had two lessons and her brother only four lessons. All of the students did a super job!

My son has been taking guitar lessons from Andrew for a few years now and we couldn't be happier! This school is organized and filled with musicians who are passionate about sharing their talents with their students. It's always fun to attend their quarterly recitals to see how their hard work and dedication is paying off. I highly recommend Grace Note!

The staff is very friendly and accommodating. My son really likes his teacher and is very excited to go back every week. His teacher was very comfortable working with younger children (he is almost 6). We had a very positive experience.

I've been interested in the violin since a young age, now that I've committed to pursuing this passion, I was excited to find Grace Note Music Studio! The teachers are professional and they work with your availability to schedule classes. The whole environment is very welcoming and the staff is great! I look foward to continue working with Grace Note. I highly recommend them to anyone interested in learning a new instrument. They offer guitar, piano, viola, violin, bass, drums & voice lessons. First lesson is free!

After my first visit I came across a very nice staff, very professional and friendly, which for me is a plus, because I want my daughter to learn piano but also be surrounded by people that provide good vibes. She hasn't had her official first piano lesson yet but we are both very excited to start soon with a teacher that has very good credentials and is equally excited to teach my daughter.

My daughter has been with Tiffany for about 3 weeks and my daughter is already picking up and learning fast. She is learning to play the piano. Her teacher has passion for teaching and patience and I love that! I feel welcome like family here and the front door girl Jordan always welcome us with big smiles😊 Very heart warming at this place.

Ms Elaine is awesome with teaching young kids. Always has new tricks up her sleeve to make it interesting. She teaches not only piano but music theory, which is not always the case. Great price for great lessons!

Grace Note Music Studio as a warm and welcoming ambiance. The studio is nicely decorated and very cozy. My daughter had her first piano lessons this week and she loved it. The staff are very friendly and nice. I registered her the same day for weekly piano lessons.
