Seeds of Music Academy

"I have been taking Guitar classes with Chris for 5 plus years. I have learned so much about guitar and music in general. I was recently able to perform at his student recital. It was a great experience that just couldn’t be duplicated in a class setting. It’s a real chance to show off what you have practiced in front of friends, family and other students. What a great opportunity! Thank you Chris and the Team!"

"Chris excellently guided my son through his high school jazz guitar adventures giving him the competence and skill/knowledge to go from barely hanging on in soph year to lead guitar soloing with confidence as a senior. And now I’m a student there as an adult and my playing has taken a big leap forward after years of “self taught” stumbling"

"I would highly recommend Seeds of Music Academy for music lessons. Chris A. is a patient and thoughtful teacher. He caters lessons to the individual and is also an amazing musician himself. The recent student recital at the Bothwell center was well organized and it beautifully highlighted the talent and dedication of the Seeds of Music students and teachers."

"Seeds of Music Academy is an incredible place to learn an instrument! I worked with Chris for over 4 years, and he was awesome! Unfortunately I’m off at college now and missing Chris’s instruction, but his amazing teaching inspired me to continue playing. I started with electric guitar and eventually took up bass to play in an instructional band that he created for his students. He is knowledgeable in so many areas of music, and I learned some of my favorite rock songs as well as explored blues and classical music. I was also taught music theory and standard notation. Chris is patient, flexible, and kind. His students get to play a lot of fun pieces in their favorite genres, but he also drills them on the less exciting parts of playing the instrument, which is often where true growth happens. I highly recommend Seeds of Music Academy."

"I came to Chris and the Seeds of Music Academy to learn how to play guitar. I had some musical background as a child, but not much experience since. Chris was welcoming, friendly and an excellent teacher. He has a wealth of techniques that he uses to teach students of all ages and skill levels. Within a few short months I'd progressed enough to perform with other students in our own band. I was hooked. I continued learning and picked up new instruments (I'm now playing bass in a band I helped organize), but still play gigs that Seeds of Music organizes. I've referred several people to Chris and Sees of Music Academy and consistently receive appreciation for the referral because Chis and Seeds of Music Academy are that good. Regardless of your age and skill level, you will have a great experience at Seeds of Music Academy."
