"Christian taught piano to my novice 7 year old daughter ... I cannot recommend him enough. His approach was so warm, friendly and encouraging. It was great to hear his encouragement from the other room...I feel any student would flourish under his teaching"
-Vickie W, parent
"I would never have made it through my piano classes without him. A great tutor who went at my own pace. Highly recommend to anyone looking to improve upon their current skill set!"
-Jake S, student
"Christian is a fantastic piano teacher! He’s patient, encouraging, and tailors lessons to our child’s learning style. Our daughter loves how he mixes music with fun games to teach notes, challenges her, and his detailed notes make it easy for us to support her practice at home. He’s made piano a joyful part of her week, built her confidence (and skill!), and we couldn’t recommend Christian more!"
Brett G, parent
Christian is our favorite teacher to ever work with our children. He is creative, patient and very positive which is what I believe all students need in their life. I highly recommend..."

My Philosophy
Whether you are a first time student or an experienced performer looking for guidance, I strive to teach the music you want to learn, while fostering a fun and safe environment to explore sound and self expression!
After many years of private study, coupled with my vast work experience as both a professional performer and teacher, I pride myself in having harnessed the tools and knowledge to aid in your journey to achieve a higher level of musical mastery. All my students will learn to read sheet music; transcribe and notate what they hear from recordings, and study the historical context and vocabulary of the whatever style they choose to explore.
I provide detailed lesson notes after each session which are shared with the student and parents via email or through written notebooks
