FEEDBACK FOLLOWING STEVEN'S COURSES: (scroll this box for more)
‘Steven [Tim] has an unrivalled passion for music, a phenomenal memory and encyclopaedic mind for all the places, dates and opus numbers, always working without notes and putting all the historical and cultural context together beautifully,’
‘Thank you Steven. Huge topic artfully squeezes into three days. Gained a lot of knowledge and leads to go away and look up so the learning will continue’
‘You’ve opened my ears to a whole new world of music which I’m going to continue exploring.’
‘Having not known much about the subject, this was extremely enlightening, interesting and very well put together. Thank you.’
‘You helped me overcome my prejudices against contemporary classical music. Thank you for opening my mind. I will now increasingly look out for new works both in concert and on record.’
