Reviews for West Hollywood classical piano lessons

Recent success stories from people in the West Hollywood area.

Laura H.

I decided to take piano lessons in my senior citizen years after not having played since I was a child. Deborah's patience and encouragement during weekly lessons have given me great confidence. She guides me through each piece carefully focusing on techniques to help me improve. I also think her selection of music books and practice exercises are appropriate for my abilty. And , she gently challenges me with more difficult pieces as I become more comfortable and capable. I would highly recommend Deborah to anyone regardless of age who wants to learn how to play the piano .

I have been Mark's student since I was around sixth grade until just now. I recently just got my Senior Medallion for Certificate of Merit for piano after finishing level 8. Under his teaching, I've also obtained honorable mention trophies for Romantic Festival and Baroque Festival, a winner trophy for Latin Festival, as well as the 15 point and 30 point trophy at Junior Festival. Even with the mistakes I make from lack of practice, he's still reasonably patient with me and helps me to make sure I play the best I can. I have very much enjoyed being his student the past 7 years.

Daniel Lessner is undoubtedly the best music teacher I have ever had. I have been a pianist for more than 20 years and have been studying with Daniel for the last 4. His passion for the piano is unmatched and infectious. His teaching style is clear, focused, and highly practical. He explains not only the technical aspects of each piano piece, but also the musical aspects and the composer's intentions. With his guidance I've been able to learn pieces such as Rachmaninoff Concerto 2 and Chopin Ballades 1, 2, and 3. I highly recommend Daniel as a teacher to pianists of any level, and especially those who are looking to elevate their piano playing to the next level.
