Bill D. says, "He works with you from what ever level you play at and shows you what you need to do to overcome your next hurdle in the evolution of your playing skill set. When I started I thought I’d never play an open C chord. Now I play around 200 songs. What ever particular issue I might have on a new song I’m trying out, he breaks it down to individual chord progressions then puts them together to smooth out any bumps in the playing you’ll find. I highly recommend Vinny to anyone at any skill level." Read more

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!
