Rick has been my outstanding mentor and friend for 5 years. I started out not even knowing how to put my saxophone together and now I am in my high school varsity band, jazz band, and musical pit. Rick always gives me music that is challenging yet very enjoyable for my skill level at the appropriate times. He has inspired me to try new things in music and is always there for support when I get troubled with music or in life. Over the years, Rick has become a great friend and an amazing teacher!

I’ve been taking lessons from Rick for about four years, and he is a great instructor. I would recommend Rick as an instructor to anyone. He gets down to the basics and works forward with every student. He will always encourage a student to go out there and volunteer for solos in the school band. He loves to go his students performances and listen and watch how well his student has progressed. This why I’ve chosen to keep taking lessons from Rick throughout my high school career.

Rick has been instructing our son in Trumpet for 2 and 1/2 years now since the 3rd grade. Rick is excellent with beginning students, very patient and really gets them excited about playing their instrument. Our son not only has developed his musical skills, we have also seen his self confidence grow with the opportunities to play in front of audiences. We are very pleased with Rick’s teaching and would recommend him to anyone looking for a personal music instructor.
