“Our son began studying with Lori when he was a child. He is now 22 years old and because of Lori, has chosen music as his career. Lori is very gifted as an instructor. She is very patient and understanding with young students as well as adults (I have had a few lessons with her as well). She has an expansive knowledge of music theory which she imparts to her students. I highly recommend Lori as a music teacher.”
