What People Are Saying

Brendan has been teaching my daughter clarinet for the past two years. He is an extremely patient and dedicated teacher and I would highly recommend Brendan to anyone who would like to improve their music skills and music marks.

I once asked Brendan, " Why are you making me play this?" His response, "To make you play better". It worked and continues today. Every Lesson improves my playing. Brendan's choice of pieces and exercises provide an excellent combination of challenges and successes. As I had previously never played alto sax, he has provided terrific guidance to the instrument. Every session is illuminating and enjoyable.

Brendan Cassidy has been teaching music to my son for at least four years. He is an excellent teacher who makes each lesson enjoyable. He communicates very well with young people and as a result they respond well to his teaching.

Very knowledgable and accommodating. Brendan took the time to understand my abilities and goals and then developed a teaching approach that was right for me.

“Brendan Cassidy has been teaching my son tenor saxophone for two years. With Brendan’s help, he has not only excelled at learning wind orchestra pieces for his high school’s demanding music program, but has alsogreatly improved his tone and enjoyed learning how to improvise on his instrument. My son looks forward to every lesson.”
