Mr. Jonny has an incredible passion for music, is very motivating and patient with my 8 year old son. I can see and hear the progress after every lesson. My little man has found love for piano, jazz, other music styles and is trying to writ his own songs now. All thanks to the Evergreen School of Music.

As a student, I’ve learned so much from Ziang Xu—not only through a piano lesson with him, but also by attending his lecture and hearing his performances in various settings. He has a deep understanding of piano technique, and through studying with him, I gained a much clearer sense of how the fingers, wrist, and arm work together to create sound. His explanations are always thoughtful and precise. Hearing him perform and speak about music also gave me new perspectives; his playing is full of honesty, color, and intention. I’m always inspired by how deeply he thinks and feels through music.
