    Piano

  • Sign up with Luther, the expert! I started with Luther in-person before COVID. We then seamlessly switched to remote, and I could not be happier. His expertise, knowledge, and patience, are unsurpassed. A true master at any level of experience. He calmly guides me through every lesson plan via my phone at the end of my keyboard. How he can stay tuned-in and conduct quality sessions is amazing. And this is with someone like me who had not touched a piano in decades. Net, I 100% recommend Luther for anyone looking to pick up or take your piano skills to a higher level.

    Tenor Sax

  • Luther has been my sax teacher for over five years. I am a busy psychologist, husband and father, and I knew that I would not have a great deal of time to devote each week, but I was also determined to learn. I began not knowing how to read music and unable to produce a note. Luther was patient, and equally determined. He is calm, but also fun and enthusiastic, exactly what I was looking for in my teacher. He personalizes his instruction, sending me sheet music and backing tracks that I can play along with. By now, I am playing a number of jazz songs (and Christmas songs also). Luther continues to have much to teach me, and I am enjoying the ride.
