Brian is very professional and knowledgeable of all music genres. He has been teaching my son both jazz and classical piano and has been a great inspiration for his piano learning journey. He makes challenging music theory topics easier to understand. The lessons with him have been a pleasure and we highly recommend him to anyone!
Brian has taught jazz piano for our son for the last two years. Is is a fantastic person and very effective and detail oriented teacher. He simultaneously has high standards, but is also friendly with students and well liked by our son.
Brian is a brilliant teacher and a sweet person. He taught me some music theory and helped me improving in piano practice. Through teaching he can express all his passion for music. And this makes the lessons engaging! It was pleasure learning from him.
