Recent success stories from people in the Denver area.

Caroline M.

I found Peter as a beginner, looking to take adult lessons. After just a few months, my sight reading, piano theory knowledge, and understanding of the instrument’s capabilities increased substantially. Peter continues to show me different ways to be creative with the piano in order to play the way I prefer/enjoy. He tailors our lessons based on what my ultimate goals are. He consistently finds new music for me to learn, and I always walk away from our lessons feeling more confident in my skills and knowledge of the piano. Another great thing about my lessons with Peter is the patience and understanding he shows with my progress; he is willing to go over things multiple times as needed and repeatedly works around my schedule when I have to miss a lesson. Overall, Peter is a kind and dedicated teacher that puts in time and effort to see me succeed in my goals. I highly recommend Peter for piano lessons.

I’m beyond satisfied with the service, music expertise and professionalism throughout my journey of song writing. Alec was able to work with me in a way that made song writing achievable. I’ve tried numerous times on my own to create a song - but not until I worked with Alec and Reed was I able to successfully created my very first song! It was worth every penny. It means so much that Reed and Alec follow up, check in, and give great feedback to take my song writing to the next level. Not only have they given me sound advice (pun intended) they have provided amazing resources to help navigate my music goals, and putting my music out there to share.

Josee is the best! My kids have been taking lessons from Josee for the past 8 years, and Josee continues to nurture and inspire them! My kids LOVE playing piano, and I thank Josee! My kids enjoy playing piano for all of the recitals, Achievement Days, Guild testing, and competitions throughout the year that keep them motivated. Plus, it’s special to hear my kids play piano at the holidays.

Having worked with Collette for over two years now, my 16 year old son loves her teaching style-- she is his favorite teacher he's ever had. She has much patience, knowledge and is overall a very kind and compassionate teacher. She really cares about her students progress and is also a collaborator as she also seeks their input on pieces they select together, areas for improvement and their overall comfort level with new material.
