Thank you Barry, for getting me through my first exam, with distinction. (Electric guitar - RGT Grade 1). I got full marks for improvisation to top it all!
James Hutchinson, aged 14
I found Barry’s teaching style exactly right for me. He gets you into playing real tunes quickly and makes the theory side fun and understandable. He is also a very accomplished player himself which I found inspired me to want to get that 'next level'.

Hi Barry, We are very pleased Kaiya passed with a Distinction in Grade 1. It was a wonderful result for him as his first grading, and it made him more confident in music. Now, he wants to achieve higher levels! Thank you very much for teaching him, he enjoys your lesson every time.

Bazza is a very versatile and likeable guitar tutor and professional musician. Would recommend him to both young, and not so young potential
students looking for a great and interesting hobby, especially students who have always wanted to play guitar, but have never tried..until now!! So go for it!!.

Thank you Barry, for a superb evening of music, which was just up my street. Everyone has said how much they enjoyed the evening which was in a great part due to you. My friend from University has been on the phone this morning saying that her husband never dances these days but at the [60th birthday] party they had not danced so much for years and he thoroughly enjoyed it because he knew the music!!!

I first saw Bazza playing at a venue near my home. I was extremely impressed with his talent, presentation and variety of musical styles, in particular his guitar playing. I subsequently employed him to play at my wedding. He completed the day with his wit and enthusiasm to please his audience. I have continued to support his gigs when he is playing nearby and would thoroughly recommend anyone to watch and hear him perform.

In my role as Entertainments Secretary for Rye Park Conservative Club in Hoddesdon, I have booked Bazza with confidence. I know that he will arrive on time with suitable self-contained equipment, and will cater for the audience on the night with his vast and varied repertoire of music. I have also witnessed at his gigs his popularity as an entertainer.
