Customer testimonials

Sandy, Palo Alto “Our family takes a total of five weekly lessons with various teachers at Opus 1 Music Studio and it has been great. With COVID-19 and shelter-in-place order, our initial worry was that we would have to halt all of our lessons. However, thanks to the Opus1 staff, we were able to switch over to online lessons without missing a beat! Now with the online lessons, it’s as if we are able to bring the teachers to our home, or wherever we go in the future. Thanks Opus 1 Music Studio!”
