Musical instruments in Manchester

“My son has been learning the electric guitar at The Music Shed for over two years. The teaching is absolutely first class and he is now a very accomplished musician. He plays in one of their many bands, which has increased his confidence, team working skills and playing ability massively. The school is run by Dave and Dawn who work tirelessly to give all students the best possible learning opportunities and organise events, gigs and radio appearances to showcase what they can do. Perhaps most importantly, the school has a family feel and takes its role in the community very seriously. It is inclusive of all backgrounds and works with children, young people and adults with disabilities. The school has had a huge impact on the community in Eccles and Salford. I can't speak highly enough about the school - you won't find a better place in Salford to learn a musical instrument or take vocal lessons.”

“It was amazing, all the children did an awesome job, I would recommend if you can get tickets for next year get them you will have an amazing time.”

“I’ve been learning guitar for two months at the age of sixties and with no prior experience, and I’m really enjoying it! The Maunder’s School of Popular Music provides a welcoming and supportive environment. My teacher- Neil, is talented, patient, and great at simplifying strumming patterns and chords. Highly recommended for learners of any age!”

“My son Oliver has been attending Aura music Academy for several years now learning to play drum (acoustic). He attended a couple of different taster sessions so he could decide where he wanted to learn and chose Aura. He has had a few different tutors along the way but has connected well with them which is important for him to engage fully. Regular updates on the school and lesson notes shared so we can see how he continues to progress.”

“A massive thank you to Sandra and all the teachers for all their hard work keeping the school going. A special thank you to Shane for his great zoom lessons, me and the lads really appreciate being able to continue our guitar lessons, which keep us sane in these trying times. If you want to learn how to play a musical instrument I highly recommend Stockport Music School”

“We have lots of Equipment on offer for hire We are the event specialists”

“Couldn’t recommend Rock Out more to budding young musicians! My son has thoroughly enjoyed his singing lessons which have developed his confidence and skills, and given him the chance to perform as part of band.”

“Highly recommended! Thanks to Ka Elisabeth Giay who was very patient and really explained everything I needed to know in detail. Continued success EducationONE :D”

“He is very passionate about music and he can give you a strong base in Carnatic music”

“Highly recommended! Excellent service with professional stringing skills⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I simply told him what type of game I wanted to play and he gave me exactly what I needed! I never asked anyone else to redo my rackets’ strings ever since then, he is definitely too GOOD, therefore I don’t need to! Vamos!”

“David is a great guitar teacher. He has been teaching my son for the last 4 years and has been great at mixing fun with learning. Ensuring that he has passed his grades but at the same time making the experience enjoyable and choosing pieces that are fun to play. He is always accommodating about timings of lessons if he can be. I would highly recommend him to any parent or student who is looking for a guitar teacher.”

“Such a great place - my son had his 8th birthday party here. Staff very helpful from the start, the coach was fantastic, everyone loved it! Highly recommend - thank you again!”

“Excellent service from Danielle, she was very helpful and went the extra mile and assisted with locating the product. Very knowledgeble on the products and provided good price on the N Switch controllers, very happy to purchase. Would certainly recommend this store and amazing staff. Thank you.”

“This is fast becoming my favourite venue for live classical music in Manchester. The concert hall has fabulously good acoustics and is ideal for piano. At the much larger Bridgewater Hall across town, the piano is all too easily drowned out by the orchestra, or, in solo performances, it can sound like it's being played in another room. Yesterday at the Royal Northern College of Music, Feb 3, three concerts in one day! A very good 45-minute free lunchtime two-part concert of piano and tenor horn and then on came a very good young baritone William Jowett who sang Ibert's 'Quatre chansons de Don Quichotte' accompanied on piano by Hanna Csermely. Same pair popped up in more songs at the Carole Nash Recital room for another free - but shorter - concert at 6.30. Then, back in the Main Hall at 7.30, Nobuyuki Tsujii played Beethoven's Waldstein Piano Sonata and two Liszt pieces. After an interval, two Chopin Nocturnes and Chopin's Piano Sonata no 3. Tsujii is blind and has been from birth. On came this tiny little man with a beaming smile who captivated the entire hall last night. Brilliant playing. We would not let him go. He played 3 or 4 encores, I lost count. Then he closed the piano lid to signal he'd played enough. We didn't mind. We went home very happy. A truly lovely evening that I'll remember for a good while. If you get the chance, go see and hear him. You won't regret it for a second.”

“Recently visited the cash converters store in Wigan. Terry was a fantastic help! Extremely polite and patient with me. Always have a great experience no matter the staff member in store, but Terry really stands out.”

“Amazing service, me and my friend just both got a piercing. I got a double helix with hoops and my friend got her belly button pierced. Gaz talked us through the whole process, he put my anxiety to ease, after I had a bad previous experience with an infected piercing. They both look amazing, prices were nice, and we got talked through the aftercare as well. The lady was also very helpful regarding the piercing and jewellery choosing explaining the options and how the option would affect me. Amazing service, will go again, highly recommend it!”

“Me and my partner come here alot, either to buy or sell. Always greated with highest professionalism and friendliness, get on well with all the workers. Today I went in after a bad day of my phone breaking and no one being able to fix it. I was helped to the fullest to get a phone in my budget, I did have to go back with it (personal problem) and was helped by a very kind, understanding and helpful worker I want to say his name was jerry I'm so bad with names. He spent quite a while helping me find a suited phone and sort out the other phone so I can get it swapped over. A can not thank you enough all of you for just giving me a little light on my bad day. Highly recommend this shops, always full of interesting things and for sure one of the best second hand shops I have been in!!”

“Great product and sport knowledge.”

“Good pub. Good pint at a decent price. Dukebox and a good atmosphere. Thank you.”

“Came here looking to get my dad a new phone, everyone was welcoming and polite and very friendly. The gentleman who i dealt with was extremely knowledgeable and really looked after me i believe he was called Matt…will definitely be back. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Ordered a Aiwa e860 turntable and it turned up in great condition I paid around £27 ish and it’s from 2005 but it looked brand new they said it had blemishes but it looks unused really good bargain and one of the top CCUK”

“My son has been attending J star academy for 3 months now and honestly I have found the whole experience with him amazing. I have seen his confidence grow and watching the recent performance put together with the acamdemy brought a lot of happiness. Highly recommend this academy for parents looking for activities with their young ones.”

“Very easy to deal with these guys. Trustworthy and honest”

“Long-standing Chorlton pub and live music venue. Good selection of world and British beers in keg, cask and bottle. Happy hour prices in the week which I think are deliberately 10p cheat a pint than the pub next door. Not exactly glamorous but the decor is pretty interesting. Known for folk music and there is always lots going on in terms of live music and comedy in the upstairs bar.”

“Such a fabulous little hidden gem. A lovely theatre space and loved the show. So funny and a real good night out. Looking forward to seeing the next production.”
