Rex Music Store & School

Pete is an outstanding teacher. I'd say certainly he's a "master" teacher—knowing different personalities, learning styles, learning curves of his students. He's analytical, understanding, precise and human. Be ready to learn, practice and really engage and it will be well worth your time and effort. "5 Stars" all the way

I have been taking piano and accordion lessons with Pete for almost 2 years. I find him to be very knowledgeable about a wide variety of music, as well as the instruments themselves. I also find Pete to care about his students, and their families well-being, in addition to promoting, encouraging, and enhancing their musical aptitude and appreciation.

Pete does a great job teaching our students. He is patient, encouraging, and sets a high standard for each student based on their abilities. He makes learning fun and a life skill that will be used for a long time. I would HIGHLY recommend Rex's Music to any family, it is such a great investment in your children.

I took french horn lessons with Pete for about a decade, from being a small child to a young adult. His lessons were never just music lessons--they were also life lessons. I owe a lot of myself to Pete's mentorship. It's a great little shop, run by a guy who really, really cares. And he takes covid super super seriously--vaccinated, masked, and has multiple high-flow HEPA air purifiers to make sure the ventilation can handle infection risks. Indisputably one of West Saint Paul's treasures.

My family and I absolutely love it here! My brother and I took lessons for years from Pete and he not only was a great teacher, he became like extended family to us. He is incredibly patient and makes learning fun. I highly recommend this place to anyone that needs anything music related or is looking for lessons.

The guy that owns Rex is wonderful! He is so thorough and well educated. And he passes his knowledge on to his students. He is a gem!

Love this place. Pete knows most instruments 🎺 and is a great teacher. We send one of our kids and more will be going.

Love it here! And Pete is a great teacher as well! I know cause I'm an old student of his.

Pete is a very knowledgeable instructor and salesman.

Couldn't ask for a better teacher to my 2 kids! He's the best!

Exellent!
