    Tim and all his staff are great to work with. He went out of his way to help my youngest become comfortable enough to work with him. My oldest increased her vocal range significantly due to Tim’s excellent instruction and experience. All of this to say I highly recommend Bass Clef School of Music to anyone looking for quality music and fine art education.

    I recently completed the beginner music theory class at Bass Clef School of Music. The classes fit perfectly into my schedule, Tim was open to everyone's availability and truly took busy work week's into account. The music theory class helped me build a foundation for music and I know I can continue to build upon it. The class was interactive, I loved that it was more than just notation and terminology. Tim helped me visually understand music and showed me that music theory doesn't have to be strict, boring or dry. The class also helped me understand that a strong musical foundation can open the door to explore music in ways I never thought I would be able to. What I mean by that is, now I feel confident in my music knowledge to tackle any instrument I want, not just one or one style. I'm so excited to take the next course, intermediate music theory, because I want to be able to play music that brings me happiness, not play what other people think I should play. Thank you Bass Clef School of Music!
