The PlaySchool - Phil Surtees Music

The PlaySchool is the outlet for my teaching philosophy - Music is about learning, growing and building community.

My lessons are structured around the music you want to play! - I fully believe you can build a solid technical and theoretical base while playing the music you actually like. Music should come from a place of love.

I'm classically trained (clarinet and piano) but in the main have been playing popular music for the last 20 years. I've been teaching privately for 10 years, following 15 years as a performer.

As well as private music lessons I also compose, produce and create content for bespoke lessons platforms and social media.
