“It is without hesitation that we recommend Evan Walsh to anyone looking for any outstanding trumpet teacher. Evan motivates my son to practice and my ten year old son looks forward to his trumpet lesson each week. Thank you, Evan, for encouraging a love for music.”
“Evan has taught my son the finer points of trumpet playing that he cannot get from his group band instruction. He helps my son set goals and provides the framework to achieve them. He is professional, prompt, and a clear communicator. Highly recommended.”
