Rick is a fully rounded musician and offers decades of experience as a performer, accompanist and piano teacher.
As a pianist/performer who is also a composer he takes pride that each song in his repertoire shines in a way that would make the composer proud. In fact part of his teaching method is for students to learn to get inside the head of the composer or song-writer.
He has not only played at all kinds of celebrations and events including wedding ceremonies, wedding receptions, birthdays, corporate functions but has been a musical director for several broadway musicals. .
Just Music Studio was founded in 1990 in Thornhill, Ontario and has become popular for his versatility to teach any style of music desired by students, and by its success to build confidence, stage presentation and love of music. Music lessons offered are piano, keyboard, guitar, bass guitar, drums, and vocals. Our music lessons are 100% customized based on individual interest and development. We can even switch instruments to find one that works for you - we've had music students come for guitar lessons and switch to vocal lessons since it was a better fit for them. We can teach by curriculum or custom depending on your individual needs.
