Introduction

Hi! I'm Brian. I moved to New York from Spain 4 years ago to pursue a career in music teaching and performance. I teach pop, jazz, and classical piano, as well as production and composition on Ableton, Garage Band and Logic Pro. I have a strong passion for music and I work hard to transmit it to my students! In 2023 I was lucky enough to put together a small team of excellent teachers to keep up with growing demand. We now offer guitar, drum and voice lesson from beginner to advanced.

My grandsons enjoyed their first sessions and look forward to learning the piano. I’m excited for them to learn. Brian made it fun and kept it light making the process sweet! Thanks

It’s only been two lessons with Brian but I feel I have already learned more than expected. I can tell that if I consistently take lessons with Brian I’ll be able to play the piano fluently fast.

Brian has been a fantastic fit for introductory piano lessons for my 16-year-old son. He is great at building rapport and made my son feel comfortable from the get go. I also appreciate his responsiveness and flexibility.

After many years of trying to improve my piano skills as an adult it's such a relief to have found Brian. I thought he was going to take me through the motions of playing again, stuff that I've heard from numerous teachers. Instead he taught me some genuine relaxation techniques and ways to work through playing anxiety and avoid feeling overwhelmed by practice. He also taught me ways to get help my fingers "memorize" the music better and undo some of my mistakes. I'm looking forward to future lessons.

Details: 26 - 44 years old • Yes, the student can read music • 2 - 4 yrs of formal training • Classical • Yes, the student has a piano • 60 minutes • My home, venue, etc.
