"I've tried many piano courses, but Open Studio tops them all. My musical knowledge is skyrocketing, and I feel more confident than ever with Adam as my guide."

"I love how Adam's teaching approach strengthens our ears. His instruction to try to hear the sound before you play it is really helping to be able to find these voicings without having to slow down to think."
