"Playing by ear has always been something that I thought you had or you didn’t. Until I met Marco who wasn’t phased one bit by my life ambitions to play Rachmaninov before I die, from virtually scratch. I have an aversion to music scores and therefore the only way was by ear. The progress in a month has been pretty encouraging, if you measure success by the amount of practice I want to do rather than have to do. And I think that is it. He keeps it fun, pretty much as a priority and that’s what’s different to the old days of learning to play. Learning to play by the old rules is out. In with Marco`s rules!"

"I found Marco on a web search as I was looking for a teacher who specialised in teaching by ear for my daughter and son. Marco was very happy to come with no obligation, and having Marco now for 6 months has transformed our children's playing. Marco is inspiring, warm, gentle and encouraging and I would highly recommend him to students of all ages."
