Testimonials

"Mr. Mascari creates a fun and entertaining environment to keep students engaged. He teaches music appreciation by telling interesting stories about composers thus creating images beyond the sheet-music. By incorporating the playing of recorded musical examples into the learning process, he also teaches kids the art of listening. Playing piano has given our boys self-confidence, taught them work- ethic, and most importantly, the love of music. We are grateful and fortunate to have found Mr. Mascari."
