A Couple of Testimonials

"...I tried out many piano instructors in my area and was very
impressed with the quality of instruction I received from Kent. He is
extremely personable and committed to helping others like myself
enjoy playing the piano. Once you are one of his students, he will go
out of his way to support your learning via phone, email and anything
else you may need to help you progress in musical goals.
.."  
- Mona R., Irvine

"Kent surprised me with his broad knowledge of music styles,
techniques and theory - classical, jazz, blues, boogie - and his playing
skills.  He's patient, uncritical, and always encouraging and he
structures his lesson plans around my musical interests...I like him
personally and know I will learn quickly with him..."
- Paul D., Costa Mesa


Also offering ON LINE lessons

About "Chord Piano"
One of my newer offerings is an accelerated course, based on what some
people call "chord piano."  Chord-style musicianship is the fastest (and most
versatile) way to learn popular piano. This approach to music is how the pros
do it -- studio musicians, jazz players, blues musicians, pop players, piano bar
players... If you want to know more, give me a call!  

I also give "traditional" lessons, for those who want to learn classical music.


Should I learn on-line, from DVD's, books, or from a
teacher?
They're all good! I do recommend studying with a private teacher, at least for a
while, no matter what approach you decide to take in your music. A private
teacher can answer your questions immediately, correct your mistakes,
motivate you, and keep you from forming bad playing habits.


When you call, I will very happy to answer any questions you may have about
rates, policies, styles of music taught, etc.
