About
With guidance and support from our skilled music coaches, our practice sessions are transformed into effortless, inspiring, and empowering experiences, setting us up for success in every possible way!

Located in the lively Brooklyn Arts neighborhood of downtown Wilmington, our centrally-located studio offers a range of in-person and online lessons to suit your needs. As an interested student, you can even take advantage of a free lesson - thank you for your interest!

I bring a diverse range of educational and professional experiences to my work, including completing ten years of merit training at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Madrid, Spain, and studying under respected instructors in New York City and San Francisco. As an experienced student-teacher, I was even offered a position at the University of North Carolina in Wilmington during my first semester.

You can trust that online students receive the same sound quality and access to resources as in-person students, thanks to our continued partnership with platforms like CrackerJack, TakeLessons, and MusikaOnline. And with a winning record of 1st place Honors Recital Awards and standout performances like my debut with the Wilmington Symphony and solo performances at Kenan Chapel, I'm confident in my ability to help my students reach their full potential. As composer Edvard Grieg once said, "One must first be a human being. All true art grows out of that which is distinctively human."

My time spent with Luis has been delightful. His lessons have been instrumental in elevating my piano skills and technique. Surprisingly, I managed to learn and master the Moonlight Sonata, a piece I previously struggled to comprehend. Luis, a fantastic and skilled instructor, is passionate about music, pleasant, communicates effectively, listens to my requests, and adapts the lesson plan to accommodate my preferred pieces. Furthermore, he accurately comprehends the educational requirements of each student, creating lesson plans according to their level. He emphasizes on technique, recommending enjoyable drills that significantly enhance my skills whilst keeping the experience fun. Unlike the tedious scales repetition, Luis recommends more melodious pieces, encouraging me to continue practicing and hone my skills. Ultimately, I always emerge from the lessons inspired and motivated to continue pursuing piano.

Luis is an exceptional musician and instructor with remarkable intellect and talent. His zealous affection for music is alluring, and his understanding of the craft is contagious. Most prominently, he is an empathetic and considerate person. During our initial encounter when I expressed my desire to excel as a pianist and musician, he advised me to prioritize being a humane individual first. This made me certain that I had found the perfect mentor.
