Testimonials
"Rosie has been taking lessons for almost 2 years and continues to look forward to the next class every time. In a couple of months after starting piano classes, she went from knowing nothing about piano to learning the piano basics, everything including music history, theory, and reading music. She receives personalized attention from Mr. Murrell and always receives positive reinforcement and support as she develops her skills. Our family looks forward to listening to Rosie play new songs after every class. Rosie’s excitement never wanes! In fact, she was quickly inspired to start working on her repertoire. The online classes are very effective and engaging. We cannot say enough wonderful things about Mr. Murrell. The experience has been positive, enriching, educational, and fun. And there’s no question in our minds that Rosie will continue Mr. Murrell's classes. We are forever grateful!" -Armen H.
