Adults who always meant to learn, teens who want a teacher who’ll let them play the music they actually love, and singers who want to sound like themselves. If the music you want to play matters to you, there’s a place here for you.
Focused, themed study built around a single goal. Three programs running this summer — each one eight 50-minute lessons at $850, credits valid 1 year from purchase. Finish ready for the fall semester.
For adult beginners and teens who want to play the songs they actually love. Chord voicings, accompaniment, playing by ear.
For players ready to cross into jazz. Voicings, comping, the blues, improvisation, and a standard you can play.
Eight weeks of contemporary voice technique. Somatic Voicework™-grounded. Pop, R&B, jazz, musical theater welcome.
You won’t be reassigned. You won’t restart with someone new when a studio’s hiring cycle shifts. The teacher who learns where you’re stuck on Tuesday is the same one who picks up the thread the Tuesday after that, and the Tuesday after that.
“Nicholas was my daughter’s voice teacher and my son’s piano teacher when they were in high school and junior high…”
— Amee M. · Parent of voice & piano students
Two kids, two instruments, one teacher, several years. That kind of continuity is why real musical progress compounds.
The schedule flexes both ways — your week moves, the lesson moves with it. The cadence stays consistent without making either of us hostage to it.
Nick teaches and performs — regularly, professionally, at venues across Chicago. Lessons come from someone actively inside the music, on real instruments: acoustic piano, Fender Rhodes, Hammond B3.
“He fostered a true love of music and learning. We are so grateful for the positive impact he had — I would highly recommend him to any family looking for a warm, engaging, and talented instructor.”
“He was instrumental in teaching my son to sight-read and develop his own voice on the piano. Five stars plus!”
“Nicholas was my daughter’s voice teacher… For her, this meant audition preparation for musical theatre and choir, but also allowing her to celebrate her love of Taylor Swift. He’s very perceptive at quickly getting to know a student as a unique individual.”
“My children have been taking lessons for years and we have gone through many for various reasons. So when Nicholas came along, we knew right away how amazing he was.”
No commitment. No audition. Just a chat about your goals and which lessons fit.
