Testimonials

“Studying piano with Nick was a truly rewarding and valuable experience, that undoubtedly inspired me to pursue music as a career. I am so grateful having spent seven years as Nick’s student, with his enthusiasm and wisdom helping foster my passion for jazz music and helping me grow from having no prior jazz knowledge, to becoming a confident and expressive musician. Coming towards the end of high school, my aspirations for music really flourished and I had set a goal of getting into the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. Under Nick’s guidance and tutelage, I was able to achieve that goal, and will always be thankful for that.“

Corriene (Raquel and Abbie’s mum)

“I have been with Nick since I was four. I have learned a heaps amount! When I am in class with him, he has got big speakers, and the grand piano that I get to play on, while he is playing on the digital piano. Nick is not just fixated on one genre of piano. We get to play classical, pop, and rock.”

Ava, 11

“We searched far and wide for a teacher that would instil the love and passion for music. With Nick,it is about the child loving the piano,and in turn,works with the child to learn to read music,which is difficult. It is a labour of love. As a parent on the music journey with my child, attending the lessons is the most enjoyable part of my week! Nick, and piano lessons are filled with music of joy and love. As parents from non-musical homes, Nick taught our child to read and play music.This gift will remain with Ava for her whole life.”

“We have been coming here since the end of 2017, and we learn so much from Mr Nick. Allessandro can now read music notation better and faster. He can play many of Bach’s awesome pieces with confidence. Mr Nick taught Alessandro so many useful, and practical techniques on how to play better. We highly recommend Mr Nick to everyone at any age and any musical level. It is fun, and you will definitely see the results when you learn from Mr Nick!”
