Cahal taught me for two lessons to fine-tune my technique and polish the three pieces for my Grade 8 piano exam. In only two hours, he greatly improved my fluency and enhanced the expression of my playing. Together we polished the three pieces I had chosen for the exam and I left playing much more confidently and with much more feeling.
I was looking forward to demonstrating the subtle changes we made to the examiner but unfortunately Covid-19 intervened and my exam was cancelled the night before. Six months later, I’m still waiting but spent lockdown practising what Cahal taught me and am really enjoying my playing.
I look forward to working with him again in the future and have no hesitation in recommending him.
Lessons with Cahal were very enjoyable. Cahal is a gifted musician, experienced performer and a knowledgeable teacher. He helped me shape my music and develop musicality along with technique work. He was friendly, patient and enthusiastic. I learned a lot in every lesson and I would recommend him to any other piano student.
I have been studying under Cahal for about a year already and I feel that I have improved immensely.
He has a great deal of experience and has effective teaching methods, being quite thorough with his teaching with very engaging lessons. He has a great attitude and is very encouraging and patient. I really enjoy his lessons and I have been able to refine and develop my skills and techniques with his guidance.
