For the glory of the most high God alone,
And for my neighbour to learn from.

The aim and final end of all music should be none other than the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul.
-- Johann Sebastian Bach
I play the notes as they are written but it is God who makes the music.
-- Johann Sebastian Bach
Why waste money on psychotherapy when you can listen to the B Minor Mass?

Teaching Focus:
Teaching music as a language.
Developing collaborative musicians.
