Kerry S. says, " My young son and I had the good fortune to become piano students of virtuoso concert pianist Judy Kameny. Kind, patient and versatile, she is clearly skilled at teaching all ages. Using the traditional classical teaching method, Judy not only taught us how to play the piano but instilled in us a true understanding of theory, the “bones”, so to speak, of the pieces we were playing. For an unforgettable, rewarding learning experience I highly recommend Judy. She gave my son and me the gift of music and a love of playing the piano." Read more

I offer a fresh perspective on the role of the music teacher. I'm certainly here to help my students learn the fundamentals, but I believe in a why-first approach to lessons. If I can't clearly articulate the reason why we're doing something and the impact it will have on a student's progress or understanding, then we don't do it. Nothing is arbitrary, and every moment is useful. I try to make sense of things by observing the patterns and relationships at play in the world around me, and I often employ this approach in my curriculum. Whether we're discussing scales, chords, saxophone technique, vocal technique or songwriting—everything can be...

Ever since I was a little kid I admired classical piano, due to unfortunate turnover of circumstances I was unable to pursue my dreams and embark on this journey as a child. Eventually I tried to break into the world by self-learning practice, mostly by listening to music and copying without sight reading which I couldn’t do. Once I felt confident enough, I decided to apply for local teachers, I saw about dozens of teachers that shut doors right to my face saying it was far too late to get serious about music in the late puberty. Then I was recommended to Tazo’s studio by my friend. Although Tazo admired work I pulled off myself, he strongly believed as everyone else that it would mean nothing if I did not forget everything and start from scratch, unlike those old school teachers I’ve encountered who couldn’t see that the seed can only thrive nurtured not placed in a cast of shadows. Tazo gave me an actual plan, challenged me, worked with me diligently and in less than a year I could sight-read swiftly. After 3 years I’m performing not only Chopin which I admired, but also Rachmaninoff even Liszt. Tazo has unique and very down to earth approach that made me fall in love with music even more than I ever was. Undoubtedly inspiring performer himself, he has made hard techniques easy to grasp, and expression of music easy to understand for me. I highly recommend Tazo’s studio to anyone who wants to learn classical piano, and not just to learn but grow!

As a theory teacher, Patrick Kreeger possesses the exact teaching style the subject requires. Patience, availability for questions and dedication to my desire to learn best define my experience with Patrick. It was such dedication that also made him call me out when he didn’t think I was doing my best or was making careless mistakes. Perhaps this wouldn’t be that outstanding except that Patrick did all of this long distance; he was in Philadelphia and I was in Delaware. He was timely in mailing me assignments and tests, and even more so in grading and returning them. I learned more from him in the 2 years I studied with him than I did in my last year of theory in my undergrad at music school. If you have the opportunity to study with Patrick Kreeger, consider yourself lucky. You couldn’t find better quality teaching elsewhere.”

Ivan is a creative and supportive teacher who helped me get past my own doubts about my ability to learn to play and that I could make and enjoy music. He is fun and supportive and offers generously of his enormous musical knowledge and especially experience of bringing music to so many students. Great teacher!

He's a great teacher: encouraging, but also knows when and how to critique and not discourage a beginner. Makes sure it is challenging, but not overwhelming. Encyclopedic knowledge of jazz and music theory. Definitely recommend!
