“Thank you for a fabulous evening. What an abundance of talent in one lovely couple!I kept wanting to get up and perform an Interpretive Dance. Your music swept me away! Cathy, I never realized before the correlation between voice [especially yours] and flute. Gordon, There were many moments it sounded like there were more than one guitar playing the music. ” JK 6/16

“I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for showing me that I had an actual voice. You are a great teacher and I am glad to have met you. When I record some solid versions of my songs, I will be sure to show you the work I continue to put in on this dream of mine.” KB 12/16

” … both very grateful for the time spent with you as their teacher. They both adore you and think you’re the best. Having basic piano skills has helped them in many aspects of life. We are so appreciative that they had such a fun, caring and patient instructor these past few years. Thank you for everything!” KM 3/18

“I want to thank you for all the work you put in with … He played his pieces for us last night (family concert) and he brought me to tears … It was amazing to hear him play like that!!” RB 11/21

“I was shocked at how well … participated (in Toddler Music). I really had no idea how well it was going to be with him but we really really had a good time. And you are so kind! Thank you!!! We sure enjoy the time at your studio!!” MC 6/21

“Gordon and Cathy, Sunday’s concert at the Weymouth House was made very special with your talented playing and singing! Thank you so very much for sharing your gifts with us! My old Andres Segovia LP’s now have a new meaning. Also, thank you for the two CD’s; I particularly like the Bach selections. At dinner that evening after the concert, I felt fortunate to sit between both of you, and to enjoy hearing more about your lives and your work to further the cause of music education in the Outer Banks. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen such a full house at Weymouth; this says much for the desires of guitar, flute, and vocal for music fans in this area. Thank you for being so generous with your gifts and talent!” D&J 1/19

W is really enjoying his music class!! He sings and plays all day … Thank you so much!! EK 2/22

“What a precious way of communicating. You and Gordon are classy, committed and inspirational. The pleasure will be ours to have you making and teaching music with us. ” JS 11/15
