TESTIMONIALS

I always look forward to my lessons with Vaughan; he can always answer my questions about playing a show, or setting up my instrument, and he is excellent at helping improve my playing. When I first decided to start taking lessons I preferred Vaughan above anyone else he has the experience playing on stage, the musical education and wisdom of being a seasoned bass player.

Thank you Vaughan for giving me the confidence to embark on my music career.  Your warm yet professional demeanor gives me the comfort of knowing this is the right decision for me.   Your method of teaching works for me.  I’ve learned a lot in the short time I’ve been with you. My journey has just begun and you are a big part of it. Thank you!

I began my journey with Vaughan a short while ago. He is warm yet professional, patient and understanding.  He supports my commitment to be the best that I can be with hard work and dedication and he is willing to empower me with his knowledge and experience to do so. Thank you Vaughan.

Vaughan Is a great bass player but more importantly a great guy. He is clearly very passionate about music and shares that with his students. He was always open to teaching me whatever it was I wanted to learn about.

After coming to Winnipeg for a quick visit, I was curious to know people from the music community. That’s how I knew Vaughan. Though we haven’t met yet, we are building a great relationship based on sharing musical ideas and a lot of enthusiasm. Vaughan is a great person, he is always willing to help and give support. As a bass player, i’m so grateful to him for his willingness to help me in my learning process. We have just started by theory staff and I feel already overwhelmed to learn what he has just shared with me ! He also kept encouraging me to keep my spirit high and never get frustrated.
I can’t wait to join his classes as soon as I come to Winnipeg !
Thank you Vaughan for your support and your friendship.
