Featured Student Review

I don’t have enough words to say that describe my gratitude for Seth’s teaching in my life. Seth taught me for many years... He planted seeds that would later bloom as I began to study music in college.

Seth is a fantastic teacher: I was always provided with enough fundamentals to do the heavy lifting required to progress, encouraged to explore my own musical tastes and learn songs I loved, and was always taught with a patience and understanding support that gave me the confidence.

His teaching translated into much more than technical proficiency and music theory. Seth taught me what it means to have music as a companion in my life and the tools to discover what that looks like for me.

I highly recommend his teaching to people of all ages and styles; he is truly a once-in-a-lifetime teacher.
