Chris has been teaching my son Piano for a little over a year now and we are extremely pleased. My son loves learning from him, looks forward to his lesson every week, and is making tremendous progress. We attended Melodic Fruit's recital in May (he'll perform next year) and you could feel his passion and excitement watching/helping his students perform. He is the real deal and I cant recommend him enough if you or someone you know is interested in learning to play an instrument.

Xavier has been teaching piano to my 8y/o for close to a yr. My son took piano elsewhere from 5-7 and while he loves music and piano the first place was more of a school atmosphere. He listened and learned but he was very much the good kid going through learning a lesson at school…Xavier has brought Miles out of his shell and made music something Miles enjoys again. He is excited…talks, smiles ..cant wait to try new stuff and show Xavier. It has been great experience for both really! I think if he continued in the more formal arrangement he might have given up where as now he looks forward to his lessons!
