Tr D. says, "I have been taking piano and Studio One lessons from Josh for 3 years, and he is an excellent teacher for both. I started with lessons on how to use Studio One because I wanted to be able to record demos for my original songs. He explained music production concepts in a clear and easy to understand way, and also demonstrated how to apply those concepts in Studio One. Regarding piano lessons, my goal was to be able to understand music theory as applied to song writing. With what I have learned from Josh, my song writing has significantly improved and I couldn’t be happier with the progress. I am also excited to get ready to play worship music at my church. Josh’s ability to break down complicated concepts, coupled with his patience and encouragement makes learning piano extremely rewarding and a joyful experience." Read more

Jeanette G. says, " I have had the pleasure of knowing Johnny Bayless for over 10 years. Shortly after moving to the bay area, I decided to become serious about my dream of learning to play the guitar. I naturally went to the closest guitar center and signed up for music lessons. I chose him as my teacher because he looked like a rock star but was an interesting dichotomy of many different styles of guitar, such as classical, country and blues. When he left the company to start his own business, I followed him because his style of teaching was incredibly dynamic, and he was able to adapt lessons to my learning needs which at times was painfully slow. When life got in the way and I had to stop my lessons, he never gave up on me and my dream, and would periodically check in to see if I was ready to pick up my lessons where I left off. When I finally returned to my lessons with him, it was like 4 years had not gone by. He quickly got me back to speed and then finally turned me into a true musician. I no longer feel like a fraud when I pick up my guitars and I can actually enjoy playing them. Johnny has an ability to connect with a student and meet them at their learning point. He is patient and will ensure you understand a concept before moving on to something new. He will push you to be better and won’t let you coast, maximizing the efficiency of your time and lesson. His passion and enthusiasm for music and the guitar is obvious upon spending any amount of time with him. I highly recommend him as your next guitar guru and can promise you will not be disappointed.

Reviews for Cupertino bass guitar instructors

Recent success stories from people in the Cupertino area.
Shruti P.
Orange Music Studio was definitely one of the highlights of my high school career! I took lessons from Gala Yaroshevsky for roughly two years and she was one of the most passionate and influential teachers I've had in my life. She has the ability to go far beyond just teaching the notes and techniques and makes music such an immersive, enjoyable, and unique experience for her students. She guided me through the Advanced level of the Certificate of Merit and both the Flute Choirs and Philharmonic Orchestra of the San Jose Youth Symphony. It would not have been the same with anyone else!
