What a fantastic experience we had choosing a step-up violin for our daughter. Carolyn's knowledge of violins turned our shopping session into a master class about how to listen and evaluate the differences in sound one encounters with different instruments. We left very satisfied with our purchase and took along a great deal of helpful knowledge as a bonus.

I highly recommend this small strings shop for purchasing and repairs. Carolyn, the owner, is knowledgeable, reliable, and friendly. We bought a student level violin, then a step up violin, and now a student level viola. All instruments have been excellent quality and excellent prices, less than competing string shops. Additionally, Carolyn does not push her customers into buying or spending more than they want. She educates and then steps back to let the customer decide. My daughter's love their violin and viola. Their music teachers have been impressed with the quality of their instruments. I plan on buying a step-up viola from Alter's when the time comes. I know I will find quality and excellent pricing at Alter's Violin Shop.

Carolyn Alter, besides being a professional musician herself, is an excellent mentor with extensive knowledge of the violin (and other instruments) and music. If you want to learn to play the violin at any age, you cannot do better than having Carolyn as your teacher. Under her careful and wise supervision over the last eight years, I have learned what it means to be a musician. She has patience, too.
