Max - Age 16

“Seth is an amazing musician and an excellent teacher. He always has a creative way to help students not only perform music but understand the deeper musicality of the pieces they play. He is one of the most competent and supporting mentors I have had, and I cannot recommend his piano teaching more!"

Gwen - Mother of Sia, Age 6

“Seth is kind, talented, supportive, and child-centered in his approach. It is always a competition in our house of who liked Seth more between the student and the parent; this mutual appreciation calls for a rare blend of qualities.”

Michael - age 66

“I have really enjoyed our lessons together. I feel that I am learning so much and making progress on technical challenges like trills - even at my age! I can’t wait to start my next piece, Beethoven’s Pathetique Sonata, and begin working on the deeper musicality with Seth’s guidance.”
