TESTIMONIALS

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING 

★★★★★

“Brad was very capable, and worked with my three teenage boys very well. They enjoyed learning from him, and they definitely improved! When finals time came around for him, he had to cancel a couple of lessons unexpectedly. Then I heard that he moved away this summer, so we have to go to a new teacher. His overall communication with the parent could have been better.”

ABOUT YOUR INSTRUCTOR

HI, I’M BRAD RAU

Starting out, my journey was not unlike many of yours.

While I diligently pursued my undergraduate degree in classical guitar, mastering rapid finger movements and minimizing mistakes, there was still something amiss.

Even though my technical skills earned me a scholarship to the prestigious New England Conservatory, and I graduated with a Master's Degree in 2015 with top honors, I felt a void.

During performances, I observed a recurring pattern. Even if a few fellow musicians appreciated my skill, the general audience seemed distant, unengaged.

My technically perfect renditions did not resonate emotionally.

Gigs were rare, fans were non-existent, and making ends meet became an increasing challenge.

Deep down, a voice whispered, "There's more to this journey."

Seeking the elusive ‘more’, I invested my time and dwindling savings to learn from legendary mentors like Eliot Fisk and Jason Vieaux.

From them, I unearthed the gold mine: the secret wasn't just in playing the guitar but in breathing life and emotion into each note.

Transformed, my performances began to captivate. Audiences would hang onto every note, laughing and crying as the music moved them.

The tide turned. More gigs, repeat invitations, growing respect, increasing fans, eager students, and finally, financial stability.

I've invested over $100,000 in lessons from the world's best to unearth this secret. And now, I'm here to guide you to the same transformation.
